Get Up Get Down Chorus: Get up get up get down – we should be dancing Get up get up get down – move to the beat Get up get up get down – we should be dancing Get up get up get down – get on your feet I wish somebody would take away this fear or take me away.. Chorus This is so scary -a feeling that I dread A Hammer horror in my head Chorus And then suddenly I’m with you on the floor it doesn’t matter anymore Midd 8: Oh I’m spinning you round in the air I’m Travolta I’m Fred Astaire Just watch me.. Chorus

Harry Walked Harry was eighteen, worked the land everyday but to see the world was what he wanted -so Harry walked away. To reveal a destination he threw a coin up in the air Tails Quebec, heads Australia, - and he’d start a new life there. Chorus: Harry talked like young men talk about starting over Harry walked the long road from Durham fields to Manitoba He waved goodbye to those around him bought his ticket -and sailed away Left behind his northern England for Canada & a brand new day. Chorus He walked his way across the country, work was anything he found In return for food or money through Cypress River, Carman Town. Chorus Barbara was a farming girl and Harry’s wife to be They worked the prairies -the plains of Roland - and began a family. Chorus 1929 21 April ship journey Summerhouse

Picture Postcards Picture postcards every day Look out your window, the postman‘s on his way “I’ll see you tonight” young lovers write On picture Postcards every day Sid writes to Doris what does he say? that brings them closer when he’s just a few miles away It’s 1910, that’s how we did it then On picture Postcards every day He sent her pictures of the stars of the day Pretty poses from Gabrielle Ray Phyllis and Zena Dare- all the girls are there On picture Postcards every day Inky kisses for a dream come true We’ll be together when I can get to you Signed “you’ll always be mine” - addressed to Rose Cottage in Swine Picture postcards every day A love that showed, all the way from Holderness Road on Picture postcards every day. Picture postcards.

Smile If You Get To Sixty 03:08
lyrics

Smile If You Get to Sixty Some take the short cut home Others just wander and roam Don’t you forget , it’s not over yet and smile if you get to sixty (smile if you get to sixty) It’s engrained in our psychology We should do everything perfectly but we’re not all meant, to reach 100% Smile if you get to sixty smile if you get to sixty Midd 8: Not all our heroes get one zero zeros in everything they do We should be taught that a six and a nought is OK –for me and you. Some take the short cut home Others just wander and roam Don’t you forget , it’s not over yet and smile if you get to sixty smile if you get to sixty
