the duchess ROBERT WYATT clawhammer ukulele cover

Oh my wife is tall and short,
She won't do what she ought.
She never lies, but then again,
She lies down all day long.
Oh
My wife is fat and thin,
She's generous and mean,
She's -----, and
Her secret's safe with me.
Oh
My wife is old and young
So sweet with her poison tongue
On her evenings off she blackmails toffs,
But her secret's safe with me.
Oh
My wife is tall and short,
She hangs out down the port,
Says "Hello sailor, how's your dad?"
But her secret's safe with me.
Oh
My wife is sour and sweet,
She dit dit dit delete,
She's lalala ladida, butter
Secret's safe with me.

Thanks Sheb. Wyatt has written songs inspired by his long time artist wife Alfreda Benge. I can see they must have a really deep friendship.

Oh dear! I mean, thanks Graham! I deleted my post on UU cause i thought this was very boring😆 (i will put it back now!)

[@ukeanflute]

Funny lyrics, and splendid clawhammer.
Really, I don't know what to make of this guy (and his missus). 🤔

[@piekia]

LOL. Thanks for dropping by Sabine!

[@brianfergus839]

Ha! Don’t know this one… I wonder what Alfreda thinks of it 😂
You make so many videos it’s hard to keep up!

[@piekia]

😆 thanks so much for watching, Brian. I take no time to make these videos....all impromptu and quick.. Please don't feel obliged to watch them all!

[@Renaissance-Man-Ukulele]

Cute song, and we'll done. I can't see what your hat says. You haven't commented on my songs this season. Am I in trouble again?

[@piekia]

Thank you for watching Cody.

[@piekia]

OK i am back to reply more. I heard your covers (not the 3rd one) and i didn't feel so much to comment. Let me enjoy my hobby at my own pace. Be kind to each other.

[@Renaissance-Man-Ukulele]

@@piekia Sure. I was just being friendly.
