    She pushed Piggy Greenfield.

    THE BLACKPOOL BELLE by Howard Broadbent and Jimmy Smith

    Oh the Blackpool Belle was a getaway train that went from Northern stations
    What a beautiful sight on a Saturday night bound for the illuminations
    No mothers and dads just girls and lads young and fancy free
    Out for the laughs on the Golden Mile at Blackpool by the sea

    CHORUS
    I remember - very well
    All the happy gang aboard the Blackpool Belle
    I remember them pals of mine, when I ride the Blackpool line
    And the songs we sang together on the Blackpool Belle

    Little Piggy Greenfield he was there he thought he was mighty slick
    He bought a hat on the Golden Mile the hat said "Kiss Me Quick"
    Piggy was a lad for all the girls but he drank too much beer
    He made a pass at a Liverpool lass and she pushed him off the pier

    CHORUS

    lce Cream Sally could never settle down she lived for her Knickerbocker glories
    Till she clicked with a bloke who said he was broke but she loved his Ice cream stories
    Sally took it all in with a smile and a grin she fell for sailor Jack
    They went for a trip to the Isle of Man and never did come back

    CHORUS

    Now the Blackpool Belle has a thousand tales if they could all be told
    Many of these I will recall as I am growing old
    They were happy days and I miss the times we'd pull the curtains down
    And the Passion Wagon would steam back home and we would go to town

    CHORUS
