Aunty Mary had a canary, up the leg of her drawers
While it was cheepin, I was peepin' up the leg of her drawers.

And on it goes, one of the stupidest songs ever written. The music, by
the way, is a jig called "Cock o' the North."

Keep the Faith

Sorry, I don't have the lyrics but I play this tune on the bagpipes.
The tune is known as 'The Cock of the North'. Hope this helps.

I'd like to say something clever, so if any of the above makes sense I will
