Subject: Lyr Req: Danny McGrew From: GUEST,Unicorn Date: 30 Jan 03 - 08:35 AM Does anyone have the lyrics (and melody?) for the song entitled "The Christening of Danny McGrew"? It's a comical song about a boy who reaches his teens without having been christened. I've been told that it's been sung by Martin Wyndham-Reed but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Thanks. |

If someone else can post the lyrics before me ...please do Otherwise I shall keep looking for the book. Moral....never be tempted to tidy up ....I know where it used to be 8-) |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Danny McGrew From: GUEST,Unicorn Date: 31 Jan 03 - 09:00 PM Thanks guys! It seems that I got just about everything wrong ... the lad was only ten years old; his name was neither Danny nor McGrew; hence the title was also wrong!!! It's a wonder you knew what I was on about, Nutty!!! Thanks again. |
