Jolly Old Ma! Jolly Old Pa!

Seq- Dr.J.Pitt-Payne. Kar- Bunty Pritchard Jones.July 2000

You can laugh at love and say it doesn't last for long,
But my old folks are still in love,
which proves that you are wrong.

Mother idolises still that little golden band,
Father still looks in her eyes and holds her little hand.

Ma and Pa laugh their cares away,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.

There they are, always bright and gay,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.

When you've got a sweetheart, it's good to be alive,
Dear Old Pa is seventy~six, his sweet~heart seventy~five.

More in love than on their Wedding Day,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.

Oh, it's grand to see that dear old couple
side by side,

Just living for each other,
all their wishes satisfied.

Sweethearts still, they travel on.
tho' years are slipping by,

Both of them have proved
that love like theirs can never die.

Ma and Pa laugh their cares away,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.

There they are, always bright and gay,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.

When you've got a sweetheart, it's good to be alive,
Dear Old Pa is seventy~six, his sweetheart seventy~five.

More in love than on their Wedding Day,
Jolly Old Ma, Jolly Old Pa, Jolly old pals are they.
