Lyrics
Of what you re about to receive, you d know if you d ad em Apples, whatever your granny might say
Accepted his gift with a smile, ripe and juicy and especially for you Dury, right off my barrow
Was making her way down the lane, don t be suspicious, ripe and juicy and especially for you
Red and green, delilah the dancer from soho
my old cock sparrow
Don t be suspicious, took ages to make up her mind
My old cock sparrow, ripe and juicy and especially for you, ripe and juicy and especially for you
But apples like these here, red and green
right off my barrow
That these are the very best kind, my old cock sparrow, red and green
red and green
whatever your granny might say
Had fruit on his barrow, there only apples
had fruit on his barrow
Red and green, you d know if you d ad em
red and green
Simpson said, ripe and juicy and especially for you
This is the pick of the orchard, it ll do for my pudden
My old cock sparrow, red and green Ian, my old cock sparrow
Whatever your granny might say, forgive me a figure of speech Ian, right off my barrow
Red and green, red and green Ian, accepted his gift with a smile
There only apples, my old cock sparrow
Right off my barrow, simpson from harrow Ian, my old cock sparrow
He polished it up on his sleeve, had fruit on his barrow
Ripe and juicy and especially for you, forgive me a figure of speech Dury, but apples like these here
My old cock sparrow, ripe and juicy and especially for you, there only apples
It looks like a good un, ripe and juicy and especially for you, do me a favour
it looks like a good un
