Lyrics
Oh my old nan was a lovely old nan a lovely old nan to me
She never had much but she gave such a lot cause her heart was big and free
Shed save up her pennies in an old brown jug and take me to the flicks nearby
In the one and six seats wed share a bag of sweets with a twinkle in our eye
Il never forget old nan was deaf shed sit there and nod her head
Youd shout in her ear shed answer alright dear but she never really heard what you said
But did I feel grand when she took me by the hand and told me of the straight and narrow
Then shed take me in a shop buy a bottle of pop and say thats for you me old cock sparrow
Oh my old nan was a lovely old nan a lovely old nan to me
She never had much but she gave such a lot cause her heart was big and free
Shed save up her pennies in an old brown jug and take me to the flicks nearby
In the one and six seats wed share a bag of sweets with a twinkle in our eye
Now dear old nan shes passed away but Ive never really believed that shes gone
Cause I hear a voice deep within my head a voice thats lingered on
It says son you will never be alone with the memorys of you and I
In the one and six seats where we shared a bag of sweets with a twinkle in our eye
Oh my old nan----
