《London Pride》歌词

[00:00:00] London Pride - Noel Coward and Orchestra/Carl Davis

[00:00:00] Written by：Edward Elgar

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

[00:00:11] 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

[00:00:25] The vegetable marrows and the fruit piled high

[00:00:29] Woa Liza little London sparrows

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

[00:00:36] Cockney feet mark the beat of history

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

[00:00:43] Nothing ever can quite replace

[00:00:47] The grace of London town

[00:00:53] There's a little city flower every spring unfailing

[00:00:57] Growing in the crevices by some London railing

[00:01:03] Though it has a latin name in town and country side

[00:01:08] We in England call it London pride

[00:01:16] London pride has been handed down to us

[00:01:19] London pride is a flower that's free

[00:01:22] London pride means our own dear town to us

[00:01:26] And our pride it for ever will be

[00:01:29] Hey lady when the day is dawning see the policeman yawning

[00:01:34] On his lonely beat

[00:01:37] Gay lady mayfair in the morning

[00:01:40] Hear your footsteps echo in the empty street

[00:01:44] Early rain and the pavement's glistening

[00:01:48] All park lane in a shimmering gown

[00:01:52] Nothing ever could break or harm

[00:01:56] The charm of London town

[00:02:03] In our city darkened now street and square and crescent

[00:02:08] We can feel our living past in our shadowed present

[00:02:14] Ghosts beside our starlit thames

[00:02:18] Who lived and loved and died

[00:02:21] Keep throughout the ages London pride

[00:02:29] London pride has been handed down to us

[00:02:32] London pride is a flower that's free

[00:02:36] London pride means our own dear town to us

[00:02:39] And our pride it for ever will be

[00:02:43] Grey city stubbornly implanted

[00:02:46] Taken so for granted for a thousand years

[00:02:50] Stay city smokily enchanted

[00:02:53] Cradle of our memories our hopes and fears

[00:02:59] Every blitz your resistance

[00:03:02] Toughening from the ritz

[00:03:04] To the anchor and crown

[00:03:07] Nothing ever could override the pride of London town
