Lyrics
...believable bargain
It certainly is!
Why did you grab it, dear?
Well, I bought a thread of pearls from you last year for one daughter
So, I figured, well, I'll get to the other daughter this spring
Yeah, it's about once a year that you'll see the six-millimeter size
Oh, they're beautiful!
I'd say, ex-, extremely high luster, perfect roundness
And the six-millimeter size, all add up to one thing
A phenomenal giveaway
Tape something for the album he's watching, so call...
Animals...
And the box...
179...
97 cents...
And it certainly is a top one
So it's a much-desired and a marvelous way to, uh, wear your jewelry
Isn't that fun?
I'm gonna miss you, and that you are
And your voice will be in my thoughts and in my heart
Happy New Year, Bubba!
Tracy, wave at the Canterbury Station, baby, take Harold along
Vera?
...and with this practical beast...
Two things that have haunted me most
Are the days in Villers when I had to collect the paybooks
And when I left Bill Hubbard in No Man's Land
I was picked up and taken into their trench
And I'd no sooner taken two or three steps down the trench
When I heard a call
"Hello Razz, I'm glad to see you, this is my second night here"
He said, "I'm feeling bad," and it was Bill Hubbard
One of the men we'd trained in England
One of the original battalion
I had a look at his wound, rolled him over
And I could see that it was probably a fatal wound
You could imagine what pain he was in
He was dripping with sweat
And after I'd gone about three shell holes, traversed that
Had it been, had there been a path or a road, I could have done better
He pummeled me, "Put me down, put me down
I'd rather die, I'd rather die, put me down"
I was hoping he would faint
He said, "I can't go any further, let me die"
I said, "If I leave you here, Bill, you won't be found, let's have another go"
He said, "Alright then," and the same thing happened
He wouldn't, he couldn't stand it anymore, and I had to leave him
In No Man's Land
