\par At the Old Leigh Town Regatta
\par 
\par There were sideshows, guideshows, roundabouts and swings
\par Football, tug-o-war and other sporty things
\par I'd 've climbed the greasy pole if I'd had a pair of wings
\par At the Old Leigh Town Regatta
\par 
\par You could see the Thameside Mummers, the flotilla floating by
\par Or go and have a try on the coconut shy
\par I saw a man in the stocks, he was looking very dry
\par At the Old Leigh Town Regatta
\par 
\par The Cockleshell Clog, they looked so neat
\par All fancy clothes and flying feet
\par Then someone shouted: "Terry, you've missed a beat!"
\par At the Old Leigh Town Regatta
\par 
\par Borderdash Morris, they danced along
\par They looked so bright their faces shone
\par And when they started singing, then I was gone

\par But they sounded much better in Martin's tent
