Текст песни Letting the New Year In - George Formby

On New Year's Eve folks sit up late and have a real do
And as they let the New Year in good luck they wish to you
Now we were happy as can be
Letting the New Year in

I stayed up till half past three - Letting the New Year in
I somehow got knocked off my feet, tore my trousers round the seat
Then I went walking down the street - Letting the New Year in

We get surprises in galore - Letting the New Year in
I think we've got to blame Old Moor for Letting the New Year in
My wife had twins but I don't shout,
Who they're like there seems no doubt
So I've been throwing the lodger out and Letting the New Year in

I like a lot of cash to spend when I'm Letting the New Year in

The horse I backed would you believe,

The horse kept shouting "Come on Steve, I'm Letting the New Year in"

Last year just as midnight struck I was Letting the New Year in
I called on Miss Brown for luck Letting the New Year in
She said "Oh doctor I'm not strong, examine me it won't take long
I said "Eh Miss you've got me wrong, I'm Letting the New Year in

With my blowlamp in my hand I was Letting the New Year in
I broke in a bank that night, a cop dashed in and held me tight
I said "Let go, it's quite all right, Letting the New Year in"

In my car I raced about, Letting the New Year in
Sixty miles an hour all out, Letting the New Year in
Right bang through a house I crashed, in her bath a lady splashed
I said as my little torch I flashed, "Letting the New Year in
