lirik lagu dick miles - on my little concertina
now, when i was a little boy and at my father’s knee
he gave me such a wondrous toy, it filled my heart with glee
with b~ttons at each end of it and bellows in between
my father taught me how to play, and when i was sixteen
i played “rule, britannia” and other songs less cleaner
while fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on my little concertina
while fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on my little concertina
i met a pretty little girl; she lived just down our road
her concertina she would play in hypophrygian mode
shе taught me third inversion and positions one to six
shе taught me each progression as she squeezed her box of tricks
she played “wolfgang mozart amadeus ex machina”
while fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina
while fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina
the wedding march was on her mind and this soon led to strife
i told her i was not inclined to play duets for life
her passions roused, she flew at me, then on the floor she sprawled
she fractured her cadenza and straightway with one a chord
she cried: “i’ll tell me ma;” she sent me a subpoena
for fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina
for fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina
now, when i came to quarter bench, the judge said: “this won’t do
you cannot finger instruments that don’t belong to you.”
i said: “m’lud, now don’t be harsh; she’s played this tune before
she learned her obbligato from the organist next door
they played “roll me over,” so excuse my misdemeanour
for fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina
for fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on her little concertina.”
the judge he was a kindly bloke and let me off scot~free
so now i’m playing folk and blues as happy as can be
so if you own an instrument, don’t keep it on the shelf
be proud to give performances and finger it yourself
just play “tw~nkydillo;” you’ll find it nothing keener
than fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on your little concertina
than fingering the b~ttons and squeezing the box on your little concertina
