Feeling Blue Song # 692

SO LONG SINCE

(THE LAST TIME)

This time last week

I was out with somebody new

She was unique

But now I’m feeling blue

All I did was sing her a song

And every little thing went wrong

So long since the last time

The national pastime...

This time last week

I was out with somebody new

She was unique

But now I’m feeling blue

All I did was sing her a song

And every little thing went wrong

Repeat

WHERE DANDELIONS GROW

I met this girl she meant all the world to me

And nobody knows where dandelions grow but me

Surprise surprise she had brown eyes

Then when she smiled at me…

I melted when I heard her voice

She sounded so good and she understood

But nobody knows where dandelions grow but me

I met this girl she meant all the world to me

And nobody knows where dandelions grow but me

Surprise surprise she had brown eyes

Then when she smiled at me…

I melted when I heard her voice

She sounded so good and she understood

But nobody knows where dandelions grow but me

PORTAFERRY

As I was going to Portaferry

Happy as Larry dee dandelion jam
I met a maiden but she didn’t care, Dun-drum dee...

She had brown eyes and beautiful hair

As she drove on to Portaferry

Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam
Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam

On the hill is Scrabo Tower says she
Happy as Larry dee dandelion jam

Up up the apples and pears she sang, Dun-drum dee...

She looked so sweet and ever so rare
As she drove on to Portaferry

Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam
Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam

We took the Tom and Jerry to Strangford

Happy as Larry dee dandelion jam

For to watch The Grand National there, Dun-drum dee...

My horse Vicente fell at the first fence

Her thoroughbred looked as lively as Ned

Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam
Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam

It must have been something that I said

Happy as Larry dee dandelion jam

I should cut my tongue right out of my head, Dun-drum dee...

Such a sweet maiden but she didn’t care
We took the boat back to Portaferry

Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam
Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam

The Lough was choppy and cold as we crossed

Happy as Larry dee dandelion jam

Castles and Abbeys, ruins everywhere, Dun-drum dee...
So much to see and so much to share
When we drove down to Portaferry

Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam
Dun-drum Dun-drum dee dandelion jam

Why don't you love me?

SHIRLEY GOODBYE

Shirley goodbye you don't love me no more

You never call up to say Hi

Shirley goodbye please don't lay down the law  

Or tell me a sweet little lie

Shirley farewell you must hate me for sure

I don't really know but goodbye

Shirley goodbye you don't love me no more

You never call up to say Hi

Shirley goodbye please don't lay down the law 

Or tell me a sweet little lie

Shirley farewell you must hate me for sure

I don't really know but goodbye

Why don't you love me me-oh-my

You make me really want to cry
