Lyrics I'm Making Headway Now - George Formby
Hello
old
pal,
I'm
glad
we
met
I've
grown
quite
fond
of
you
You're
quiet
as
a
lamb,
but
don't
forget
We'll
show
'em
what's
to
do!
One
another,
we'll
stand
by
To
prove
my
words
I
mean
to
try
You've
got
a
kick
and
so
have
I
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
Of
wheat
and
chaff
we've
ample
stores
I
know
I'll
never
starve
because
When
I've
eaten
mine
I'll
start
on
yours
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I've
got
my
ambition
I'll
be
the
talk
of
the
town
I'll
hold
my
position
They
can't
keep
a
growin'
lad
down!
I
joined
a
gym
for
exercise
A
lady
instructor
put
me
wise
She
made
me
spare
parts
twice
the
size
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I've
got
a
job
and
I
mean
to
score
For
me
there's
somethin'
good
in
store
I
won't
clean
winders
anymore
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I
take
a
horsebox
to
the
course
That
takes
quite
a
lot
of
force
I
must
be
strong
to
box
a
horse
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I've
got
my
ambition
I'll
be
the
talk
of
the
town
I'll
hold
my
position
They
can't
keep
a
growin'
lad
down!
Once
I
phoned
the
railway
folk
"Give
me
the
goods!"
A
lady
spoke
She
said,
"I'm
the
goods!",
and
I
said,
"That's
oke!"
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I
mean
to
join
the
ARP
The
Fire
Brigade
and
the
CID
I
might
even
join
the
BBC
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
A
heavyweight
I
had
to
fight
I
said,
"In
me
left
there's
dynamite
And
a
couple
of
horseshoes
in
me
right!"
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
I'll
hold
my
ambition
I'll
be
the
talk
of
the
town
I'll
hold
my
position
They
can't
keep
a
growin'
lad
down!
Said
the
girl,
"If
your
wife
I
should
be
Of
children
I'd
like
two
or
three"
I
said,
"You
can
leave
all
that
to
me!"
I'm
makin'
headway
now!
