《London Pride》歌词

[00:00:00] London Pride - Noel Coward and Orchestra/John Singer

[00:00:02] Written by：Noel Coward

[00:00:08] London pride has been handed down to us

[00:00:12] London pride is a flower that's free

[00:00:15] London pride means our own dear town to us

[00:00:18] And our pride it for ever will be

[00:00:22] Woa Liza see the coster barrows

[00:00:24] The vegetable the marrows and the fruit piled high

[00:00:28] Woa Liza little London sparrows

[00:00:31] Covent garden market where the costers cry

[00:00:35] Cockney feet mark the beat of history

[00:00:39] Every street pins a memory down

[00:00:42] Nothing ever can quite replace

[00:00:46] The grace of London town

[00:00:52] There's a little city flower every spring unfailing

[00:00:56] Growing in the crevices by some London railing

[00:01:01] Though it has a latin name in town and the country side

[00:01:07] We in England call it London pride

[00:01:14] London pride has been handed down to us

[00:01:17] London pride is a flower that's free

[00:01:20] London pride means our own dear town to us

[00:01:23] And our pride it for ever will be

[00:01:27] Hey lady when the day is dawning see the policeman yawning

[00:01:31] On his lonely beat

[00:01:34] Gay lady mayfair in the morning

[00:01:37] Hear your footsteps echo in the empty street

[00:01:41] Early rain and the pavement's glistening

[00:01:45] All park lane in a shimmering gown

[00:01:48] Nothing ever could break or harm

[00:01:52] Of the charm of London town

[00:01:59] In our city darkened now street and square and crescent

[00:02:04] We can feel our living past in our shadowed present

[00:02:10] Ghosts beside our starlit thames

[00:02:13] Who lived and loved and died

[00:02:17] Keep throughout the ages London pride

[00:02:24] London pride has been handed down to us

[00:02:28] London pride is a flower that's free

[00:02:31] London pride means our own dear town to us

[00:02:34] And our pride it for ever will be

[00:02:38] Grey city stubbornly implanted

[00:02:41] Taken so for granted for a thousand years

[00:02:45] Stay city smokily enchanted

[00:02:48] Cradle of our memories our hopes and fears

[00:02:54] Every blitz your resistance toughening

[00:02:57] From the ritz to the anchor and crown

[00:03:01] Nothing ever could override the pride of London town
