Speaking of Novelty songs . . . the Brits have their fair share too!

Northern Novelty Songs . . . for an old friend! I first heard this song early on and was surprised to find it in Women In Love  


I have loved the owkr of Northern folksters the Oldham Tinkers who specialised in such novelty

but here’s a version of a family favourite from Penny Black and Her Little Bear Behind!
and remeber folks and especially the young gals ‘Keep Yer ‘and on Yer Ha’penny!'
