《The Old German Clockwinder》歌词

[00:00:00] The Old German Clockwinder - Cliff Haslam/Nick Apollonio

[00:00:01] A German clockwinder to Manchester came

[00:00:05] And Peter Von gherkin was the old German's name

[00:00:10] All up our street with his little brass bell

[00:00:14] Some clocks for to wind

[00:00:15] This old German would yell

[00:00:18] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:00:22] I toodalum I toodalum in the old fashioned way

[00:00:26] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:00:31] Well I winds them by night

[00:00:32] And I mends them by day

[00:00:35] Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong

[00:00:39] He's met a young woman in Stephenson Square

[00:00:43] She said as her clock was in need of repair

[00:00:47] She took him upstairs

[00:00:49] And he followed with delight

[00:00:52] In less than ten minutes

[00:00:54] He'd set her clock right

[00:00:56] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:01:00] I toodalum I toodalum in the old fashioned way

[00:01:04] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:01:08] Well I winds them by night

[00:01:10] And I mends them by day

[00:01:13] Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong

[00:01:17] Now this old German was the ladies delight

[00:01:21] He often went to them by day and by night

[00:01:25] And some went too fast like

[00:01:28] Others went too slow

[00:01:30] But nine out of ten

[00:01:31] He could make them all go

[00:01:34] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:01:38] I toodalum I toodalum in the old fashioned way

[00:01:42] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:01:46] Well I winds them by night

[00:01:48] And I mends them by day

[00:01:51] Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong

[00:01:55] Now while they were busy at what they was at

[00:01:59] All of a sudden there came a rat-tat

[00:02:03] And in came her hubby who got such a shock

[00:02:08] To see that's old German winding up his wife's clock

[00:02:12] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:02:16] I toodalum I toodalum in the old fashioned way

[00:02:20] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:02:25] Well I winds them by night

[00:02:27] And I mends them by day

[00:02:29] Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong

[00:02:33] Our clock it was bent and knocked out of repair

[00:02:37] Well that poor old German he got such a scare

[00:02:42] That never oh never for the rest of his life

[00:02:46] Would he wind up the clock of another man's wife

[00:02:50] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:02:54] I toodalum I toodalum in the old fashioned way

[00:02:58] I toodalum I toodalum I toodalum I ay

[00:03:03] Well I winds them by night

[00:03:05] And I mends them by day

[00:03:07] Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong

[00:03:11] Well I winds them by night

[00:03:13] And I mends them by day
