George Formby - Grandad's Flanelette Nightshirt lyrics



Now in our family we’ve got an heirloom
They handed it to me a year ago
It’s been in our possession since Grandad was a lad
I’ll tell you what it is and then you’ll know

It’s me Grandad’s flannelette nightshirt
In it I was Christened one day
Down at the church they were in a whirl
No one seemed to know if I were boy or girl
They’d had one or two and ee they were in a mess
“But it’s alright,” said the preacher rather curt
“I’ve been and had a quiz and I’ve found out what it is
By his Grandad’s flannelette shirt
Lordy, Lordy
His Grandad’s flannette shirt.”

In my Grandad’s flannelette nightshirt
I got married one day
While on the train my bride gave a shout
“Ee what is that you are pulling out?”
I said, “It’s old fashioned and it’s ithered and torn
But I’ve bought it honeymooning with me Gert.”
When she said, “What is it dear?” I whispered in her ear
“it’s me Grandad’s flannelette shirt
Lordy, Lordy
Me Grandad’s flannelette shirt

The other day I got an invitation
To go and join a nudist colony
And as the life is healthy and in the open air
I trotted off as happy as can be
With me Grandad’s flannelette nightshirt
I walked up to the door
Someone said, “Now don’t make a fuss,
Just take off your clothes and you’ll be like us.”
I was bashful so I stayed by myself
Fr with the girls I didn’t want to flirt
But when I was asleep they all came and had a peek
At me Grandad’s flannelette shirt
Lordy, Lordy
Me Grandad’s flannelette shirt
