Penny For The Guy - Lewes Bonfire Celebrations
June 4, 2011 at 10:59 by admin
A penny for the guy,
A penny for the guy,
A big umbrella
And a flashy tie,
The guy, the guy,
Pin him in the eye;
Stick him on a lamp post,
Don’t let him die.
Source Unknown Opie
Guy Fawkes, Guy.
Hit him in the eye,
Hang him on a lamp-post
And leave him there to die.
Umbrella down the cellar
There I saw a naked fella
Burn his body, save his soul
Please give me a lump of coal;
If a lump of coal won’t do
Please give me half a penny,
The up and down the Drapery
Round and round the Market square,
Guy Fawkes, Guy.
