HELLO DALIDA !
HELLO
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I`M DANCING
THE FOXTROT, THE POLKA?
NO, NO I`M DANCING THE LAMBETH WALK
WHAT?
THE LAMBETH WALK
One day with time to spare
In grand ma`s home I climbed the stair
I reached the attic at the top
Oh what a site I had to stop
Books pictures junk galore
It looked just like a jumble store
Lot`s of records everywhere
Wish they could play them there
Then with grand ma in a dream
I was on the thirties` scene
There was her own
Hold down the gramophone
Turned the handle heard it play
All the songs of yesterday
Charleston and waltz
Rumba and swing of course, hey
But top of all the back there
High up the Union Jack there
Making you want to sing God save the King
Learn the lyrics, learn the tune
Start the dancing round the room
Old that`s the new doing the Lambeth Walk, hey
It was a big sensation
Just like a celebration
You`ll either sing or talk it
Lambeth Walk it
Anytime you`ll Lambeth way
Any evening any day
You`ll find us all doing the Lambeth Walk, hey
Every little Lambeth Gal
With her little Lambeth Pal
You`ll find them all doing the Lambeth Walk, hey
Everything free and easy
Do as you darn well pleasy
Why don`t you make your way there
Go there stay there
Once you get down Lambeth way
Every evening every day
You`ll find yourself doing the Lambeth Walk, hey
Once you get down Lambeth way
Every evening every day
You`ll find yourself doing the Lambeth Walk
(Douglas Furber / N. Newell / Noel Gay / Pierre Delanoe) -1978
