Maginot waltz cover (for our fallen soldiers )by Ralph McTell
BackMel Plant cover of Maginot waltz by Ralph McTell All off to Brighton in a charabanc Albert played his banjo and how we sang the beer was expensive but the laughter was free oh how we do love to all be beside the sea Albert had a cousin named Marjorie I had been noticing how she had noticed me so I quickly decided if she didn't mind if I could spend the day in her gay company We shared a plate of whelks strolling side by side, I said she was to old to take a donkey ride but I didn't mind when she laughed and said no, so we paused for a while to all listen to the minstrel show There was a notice at the palace pier, said there was to be a dance that night and it wasn't dear I explained of course that I could only waltz, so we waltzed to every tune in air nine o clock came round we had to take the charabanc Albert was to drunk to play the banjo but how we sang all except Marjorie, I could tell at a glance, because me and Albert were leaving for France I said we'd both be home in a week or two, me and Albert and Lord Kitchener will teach the Hun a thing or two I'm sure to return after me do not yearn, and we'll waltz together all our lives through
