Oh, Don't the Wind Blow Cold - George Formby

Some folks like the weather cold, it’s healthy they tell you.

It may be dense but where’s the sense if your nose keeps turning blue?

On the day that I was born I was just ten minutes old.

I popped my head 'neath the clothes and said, «Brrr!

don’t the wind blow cold?»

He yelled and raved as a shirt he waved «Oh!

don’t the wind blow cold?»

don’t the wind blow cold?»

On a pair of stilts in Scotchman’s kilts, Wow!

While Miss Jones was in her bath, our Curate called I’m told.

He saw the door ajar, giggled, «There you are, Oh!

don’t the wind blow cold?»

There’s no sense in shivering until you start to freeze.

What’s the use of quivering and shaking at the knees?

Six Fan Dancers did their dance, six Fan Dancers bold.

They only had five fans — so what?

Oh!

didn’t the wind blow cold?

I saw some lovely bathing belles, upon the beach they rolled.

They jumped to their feet when I said, «Tweet tweet, Oh!

don’t the wind blow

cold?»

When Godiva rode her horse round Coventry I’m told,

She cried and sobbed, «Eemy hair I’ve bobbed, Oh!

don’t the wind blow cold?

There’s no sense in shivering until you start to freeze.

What’s the use of quivering and shaking at the knees?

A girl I cuddled in the park said, «Please, let go your hold.

Something’s ripped and I think it’s slipped, Oh!

Mother don’t the wind blow

cold?»
