Quote ="Teessidewire"Soon as you get the full song, can you get it on here?'"
Just a selection of the many verses
Warrington Man by Christopher Finton Culleton (Longford Lover)
I`m a Warrington man and I don`t give a damn
Coz everyone knows I`m a Warrington man
One night as I came out of The Vine
I was singing and shouting and having a time
When the cops came over and threw me in clink
They said " Chris you`ve had to much to drink"
I`m a Warrington man and I don`t give a damn
Coz everyone knows I`m a Warrington man
Now my mates and myself went The Carlton one night
We kicked up a row and we started to fight
Bill Medland came over and he threw me out
And said "don`t come back you long haired lout"
Chorus
Now I met an old tramp he was tattered and torn
He was eating the grass at the front of my lawn
I said " if you`re hungry and want a good snack
The grass is much longer around at the back"
Chorus
Then I met a daft fellow by the name of Jim
One day I threw some tomatoes at him
"Tomatoes won`t hurt me " he said with a grin
these buggers will, they`re still in the tin
Chorus
Now The Rabbit, The Smith, The Crock and The Noon
Went on a pish up with The Longford one June
On the thirty first day of our marathon sticker
The pubs had to shut coz we`d supped all their liquor
Chorus
Now the girls of St Helens, Wigan, Widnes and Leigh
All have confessed their affections to me
So I tell each one it`s her I adore
And I give them a bone and they come back for more
Chorus
PS There are more verses and I`ve had to censor some of it
And on a final note, whilst I was at Chris` house and he was digging his song sheets out, he was showing me his photes of himself with The Stones and Deep Purple and telling me a story of how he was at The Carlton with his son one Saturday night when his son says
" Dad is the rumour about me being conceived on the dance floor true"?
"No" he said "Don`t be silly.......it was on the stage"
God love him. There`s a book there somewhere.
