Oh the Blackpool Belle was a getaway train that went from Northern stations

What a beautiful sight on a Saturday night bound for the illuminations

No mothers and dads just girls and lads young and fancy free

Out for the laughs on the Golden Mile at Blackpool by the sea

Chorus

I remember - very well

 All the happy gang aboard the Blackpool Belle

I remember them pals of mine, when I ride the Blackpool line

 And the songs we sang together on the Blackpool Belle

Little Piggy Greenfield he was there he thought he was mighty slick

He bought a hat on the Golden Mile the hat said "Kiss Me Quick"

Piggy was a lad for all the girls but he drank too much beer

He made a pass at a Liverpool lass and she pushed him off the pier

Chorus

Ice cream Sally could never settle down she lived for her Knickerbocker glories

Till she clicked with a bloke who said he was broke but she loved his Ice cream stories

Sally took it all in with a smile and a grin she fell for sailor Jack

They went for a trip to the Isle of Man and never did come back

Chorus

Now the Blackpool Belle has a thousand tales if they could all be told

Many of these I will recall as I am growing old

They were happy days and I miss the times we'd pull the curtains down

And the Passion Wagon would steam back home and we would go to town

Chorus
