Girls Of The Open Spaces 1938 'Great Days'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 06 Jul 2002

Girls oh girls come out to play
over the hills and far away.
Hear the clarion call today
"Follow, follow, follow"
Sizes matter not a jot
all that talk is tommyrot
we're a gay and sporty lot
Follow, follow, follow,
follow, follow, follow, follow,
follow, follow, fa fe fe.
Follow, follow, follow,
Follow, follow, follow,
fa fe fe.
Tripping ah so lightly
over leafy dell and lea,
don't you say you don't know we:

We're the girls of the open spaces,
out on a tatta, we wander afar,
Oh tittifala,
and we land in the strangest places,
what a brave bunch of girls we are.
As we hike over dyke and valley
searching out for Nature's Lore,
we hope one day to find
what we are looking for.

We're the girls of the open spaces,
out on a tatta, we wander afar,
Oh tittifala,
and we land in the strangest places,
what a brave bunch of girls we are.
As we hike over dyke and valley
searching out for Nature's Lore,
we hope one day to find
what we are looking for.

Come and join our Band today,
come along and let's away.
Nature's calls we must obey.
"Follow, follow, follow"
You shall have a lovely spray
to dance the sunny hours away,
all us girls went nuts in May,
Follow, follow, follow,
follow, follow, follow, follow,
follow, follow, fa fe fe.
Follow, follow, follow,
Follow, follow, follow,
fa fe fe.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, he he he he,
laughing happy maids are we.

We're the girls of the open spaces,
out on a tatta, we wander afar,
Oh tittifala,
and we land in the strangest places,
what a brave bunch of girls we are.
As we hike over dyke and valley
searching out for Nature's Lore,
we hope one day to find
what we are looking for.

We're the girls of the open spaces,
out on a tatta, we wander afar,
Oh tittifala,
and we land in the strangest places,
what a brave bunch of girls we are.
As we hike over dyke and valley
searching out for Nature's Lore,
we hope one day to find
what we are looking for.
