Chorus

Didn't we have a lovely time the day we went to Bangor

 A beautiful day we had lunch on the way

 And all for under a pound you know

 Then on the way back I cuddled with Jack

 And we opened a bottle of cider

Singing a few of our favourite songs as the wheels went round

1. Verse

Do you recall the thrill of it all as we walked along the sea front

Then on the sand we heard a brass band

that played De Diddle De Bum Ta Ra Ra

Elsie and me had some cups of tea

then we took a peddler boat out

Splashing away as we toured round the bay as the wheels went round

Chorus

2. Verse

Wasn't it nice eating chocolate ice as we strolled around the funfair

Then we ate eels on the big Ferris wheel

we sailed above the ground but then

We had to be quick because Elsie felt sick

and we had to find somewhere to take her

I said to her lad "what made her feel bad" ‘twas the wheel going round

Chrous

3. Verse

Elsie and me we finished our tea, and we said goodbye to the sea side

Back on the bus Flo says to us

oh isn't it a shame to go

Wouldn't it be grand to have cash on demand,

and to live like this for always

Oh it makes me feel ill when I think of the Mill and the wheels going round

Chorus
