lyrics

Alec Abrahams shuts the door behind him
Places down his things
His little piece of peace and quiet
In amongst the din
Puts the shopping in the cupboard
And a saucepan on the ring
And keeping one eye on his supper
In a quiet voice he sings

‘He’s the talk of Moortown Corner
And from here to Wigton Moor
Says that all the ladies know him
Every one of them adores

Alec Abrahams’

Alec Abrahams eats his supper
At a table set for one
His toast’s well buttered
But his boiled egg’s a little underdone
He reads the paper
As the eggs dries in a crust beneath his lip
But when he gets up
To take his plate and put it in the sink

He’s the talk of Moortown Corner
And the King of Queenshill Drive
Says that all the ladies know him
He’s the last one of his kind

Is Alec Abrahams
