Re: Make 'Em Laugh

I remember a comedy record by a bloke called Paddy Roberts, in the 60s, called The Ballad of Bethnal Green. It was a sort of spoof folk song about a girl who fell for a Teddy Boy. I can't remember all the words but do remember a bit that went -

She was blond and dumb and she lived with her mum
On the edge of Bethnal Green.

And another bit -

And she loved the gay abandoned way
He chewed his chewing gum.

The chorus was all titty-fal-lal-lah-lay...etc. Is that the one you mean GrannyC?
