Blackpool Rock (with My Little Stick Of)

Formby George

Every year when summer comes round, off to the sea I go. 
I don't care if I do spend a pound, I'm rather rash I know. 
See me dressed like all the sports, in my blazer and a pair of shorts. 
With my little stick of Blackpool Rock, along the promenade I stroll. 
It may be sticky but I never complain, it's nice to have a nibble at it now and again
 Every day wherever I stray the kids all round me flock. 

One afternoon the band conductor up on his stand 
Somehow lost his baton - it flew out of his hand 
So I jumped in his place and then conducted the band 
With my little stick of Blackpool Rock 

With my little stick of Blackpool Rock, 
Along the promenade I stroll, 
In my pocket it got stuck I could tell 
'Cos when I pulled it out I pulled my shirt off as well 
Every day wherever I stray the kids all round me flock. 

A girl while bathing clung to me, my wits had to use 
She cried, "I'm drowning, and to save me, you won't refuse" 
I said, "Well if you're drowning then I don't want to lose 
My little stick of Blackpool Rock." 

With my little stick of Blackpool Rock, 
Along the promenade I stroll 
In the ballroom I went dancing each night 
No wonder every girl that danced with me, stuck to me tight 

Every day wherever I stray the kids all round me flock. 
A fellow took my photograph it cost one and three. 
I said when it was done, "Is that supposed to be me?" 
"You've properly mucked it up the only thing I can see is 
My little stick of Blackpool Rock."
