Old Siam, Sir
Track n° 6 of the album Back to the Egg

Lyrics

In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who's lost her way
In an effort to find a man, sir, she found herself in the old UK
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough
In a village in old east end, sir, she mea fellow who made her real
Took her rushes to show, this man, sir,
He met her dad at the wedding meal

In a letter from Old Siam, sir, came an awful tale of woe
She decided the only answer was to get off a pile of dough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough
When a relative told her man, sir, he directed her not to stay
In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who's lost her way

In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who's lost her way
In an effort to find a man, sir, she found herself in the old UK
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough

+ repeat first two lines of last verse, then repeat until fade:
Walthamstowe . . . Scarborough . . .

You and Old Siam, Sir
