Lori with The Marksmen - "Silly Billy Blunder" (1966)
Transcript
00:00One rainy morning, without any warning, a large umbrella crossed our street.
00:13Big, black and shiny, covering someone tiny, but all that I could see were two small feet.
00:23In and out the traffic, dodging here and there, that umbrella went with a jump scare.
00:32I said to wonder who was that down under, hogging an umbrella like a teddy bear.
00:42Horns started blaring, everyone was staring at that strange object in our street.
00:51Big, black and shiny, covering someone tiny, a little circus tent on two small feet.
01:00Then a young policeman pulled up from the jeep, there's an umbrella there, has a boy down deep.
01:09He swooped down under, brought a billy gander, just a tiny truant from his morning sleep.
01:19Now Billy Gander, who was once down under, resides by a pot in his safety coat.
01:28When you are out in rain or hail or thunder, hold up your umbrella when you cross the road.
