Lost Songs by Denis Scott
and a wonderful
Welsh Male Voice Choir
There used to be a few pubs In a place called Rhondda Many years ago, Where you could sing a song or two,
After having a few.
Those were the good old days In a place called Rhondda Many years ago. Where if you had a "bob" or two, You could have a pint or two, And then sing a song or two.
There was "Morlais" and "Pendyrus" And "Treorchy" too, In a place called Rhondda Many years ago. They could certainly sup a pint or two
And sing a song or two In a pub for you.
"Comrades" and "Myfanwy"
Are not heard anymore,
In a place called Rhondda. Not in the pubs for you After a brew or two. For it is Pop music and Lager time Where the young with more than a "bob" or two Never sing a song or two, After having a few.They prefer a social time, Now In a place called Rhondda, With loud music blaring right through Any conversation with you And a friend or two. With bingo and video games too, There is no call for A song or two, After having a few.
The men who could sing for you In a place called Rhondda, Pine for the good old days, true.
With their love of music And their voices ringing true.
So if you go out one night In A place called Rhondda, And would like to sing a song or two After a having a few, Don’t try a pub, Try a local rugby club, Where They will be happy to sing for you After a pint or two, In a place called Rhondda.
