Lyrics George Formby

George Formby

Keep Your Seats Please

There's a catchword getting all the craze, it's the

latest phrase,

Everybody says: hold tight keep your sets please

No one knows just why it first broke out, what it's all

about

Why do people shout. Hold tight keep your seats please

What a sensation, talk of the nation, how it travels

round.

Even the Hindoos, Kaffirs and Zulus, they've all got

it,

Hear them holla it.

In the talkies holding hands perhaps, all you girls and

chaps,

On each others laps. Hold tight keep your seats please.

If you're in a public bar one day and hear a Scotchman

say,

For the drinks I'll pay. Hold tight keep your seats

please.

If a lady speaker starts to bawl, I can prove to all

why

You women fall. Hold tight keep your seats please.

What a sensation, talk of the nation, how it travels

round.

Even the Hindoos, Kaffirs and Zulus, they've all got

it,

Hear them holla it.

Your old flame upon her wedding day hears the parson

say

Wholl give her away. Hold tight keep your seats please.

On the donkeys by the gay seaside should the saddle

slide

Upside down you'll ride but hold tight keep your seats

please.

If your landlady who's so precise says the chicken's

nice

Let me help you twice. Hold tight keep your seats

please.

What a sensation, talk of the nation, how it travels

round.

Even the Hindoos, Kaffirs and Zulus, they've all got

it,

Hear them holla it.

On the swing boats when you ladies go, mind the crowds

below,

Take care what you show. Hold tight keep your seats

please.
