Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey

But there's no one left at home
Hands across the water
(Water)
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
Hands across the water
(The butter wouldn't melt so I put it in the pie)
Hands across the water
Live a little, be a gypsy, get around

But the kettle's on the boil

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
And I believe I'm gonna rain
But if anything should happen
(Water)

We'll be sure to give a ring
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
Live a little, be a gypsy, get around
(Water)
Live a little, get around
He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea
But we haven't heard a thing all day

Get your feet up off the ground
(Get around)
(Water)
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and butter pie

Hands across the water
Hands across the water

But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
Heads across the sky
Live a little, get around

Heads across the sky
(Butter pie)
Hands across the water

(Get around)
And we're so easily called away
(Water)
Heads across the sky
Admiral Halsey notified me
(Water)
Heads across the sky
We're so sorry
Get your feet up off the ground
Heads across the sky
