My Allotment |
I’ve got m’iself an allotment
‘Cos I like to grow m’i own
Eat five a day, that’s what they say
Better hurry up and get some seeds sown
We’re all old pals at the allotment
Swapping produce to keep us all fed
We gather together in all sorts of weather
When it rains, we sit n'talk in the shed
As a child, I listened to m'i mother
When she said "eat up all y'r greens"
The temperature's rising, better get more planted
Along with the sprouts and the peas
I’m going on down to m’i allotment
‘Cos I’m worried about m’i spuds
No sign of them yet, not a leaf or a shoot
On account of the rain and the floods
Time to sow more seeds at the allotment
Put some canes up to support all the beans
Beetroot and peas are bound to taste sweet
Along with the sprouts and the greens
I’m spending more time at the allotment
Now the sun has come out full blast
I’ve done all m’i sowing, m’i seeds are all growing
And m’i spuds are now sprouting at last
Now all’s not just right at
the allotment
With an influx of those dreaded moles
I’ve done all I can to get rid of the pests
Now just need to repair all the holes
I spend so much time at m’i allotment
People think it’s a love affair
But I’m only keen on growing m’i veg
Not women with long blond hair
I’m going every day to m’i allotment
With m’i tools, ready for the next task
Then I sit on m’i seat, in the sun
and the heat
What more can any man ask!
