lyrics

With my lovely husband today I landed here,
By a cheap excursion train because it wasn't dear,
Left me at the station, told me not to fret,
While he went to look for rooms, he's looking for 'em yet.
That's exactly twenty hours ago;
I thought somehow he wasn't coming back,
But when I do lay hold of him there's going to be some fun,
I only want to get upon his track.

Chorus: It ain't all honey and it ain't all jam,
Pushing round the houses, a three wheel 'pram',
All on my lonesome, not a bite to eat,
Walking about on my poor old feet.
My old man, If I could find him,
A lesson I would give,
Poor old me, I haven't got a key,
And I don't know where I live.

Fancy, twenty hours, and I haven't had a drink,
I feel inclined to push the perambulator down a sink,
But I think the best thing for baby, pretty lamb,
Is shove it on the parish, then I think I'll pawn the 'pram'.
He's done this thing many, many times,
Run away and left me, what a life!
I'll bet while I'm a-walking round a-looking after him,
He's looking after someone else's wife.
