Conkers 1954 Max Bygraves

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 23 Sep 2002

My boyhood days,
will always be a happy memory
when I think of all the things
we used to do
One special game we played
still comes back to me
I'll explain it all to you.

There's a game we used to play
called "Conkers"
in those happy childhood days of long ago;
with a chestnut on a string,
we hit it with a swing,
I remember in those days
I was the Conker King.
The kids at school all used to
call me "Conkers"
and that nickname's
always stuck to me like glue,
when I went out they used to shout out
"Conkers" and I'd say:
"Conkers and the same to you!"
