Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "Scarborough Fair."
(As a KID,in 1960's England, mostly, SCOTLAND, but my"local" family holidays:, Bridlington, Scarboro, Robin Hood's Bay, Flamboro Head, Scoresby Mills), Whitley Bay)
(Song:)
Scarboro Fair.
"ARE U GOING to Scarborough Fair?... Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme?.... REMEMBER,
remember me to a love that lives there?
(GOD DAMMIT!) She, Yup! Was once a Cool Lady mine.
Did I grow UP in (YAWKSHAH!) the South or West "Riding"; Parsley Sage, Rosemary, and Tyne? Used to exercise ponies every weekend; to the Manor born!
Did I fall in love with a fine Yorkshire girl? -She once was a true love of mine.
AS for making a Cambric shirt (Parsley whatsit!?); get ya ASS down to London town? The Belles of Yorkshire, U' will never know? Parsley, sage, rosemary..and TIME...without no needlework.
A Shropshire Lad, a Yorkshire Lad? In TIME? Who is not guilty... in selfless Progress?
NO-ONE gets NOT to rue the day (frickin' DANG!)... (my best English); and disdains the riches of his Lay? DAMN echoes of a yesterday: resound?
Are U GOING to Scarborough fair (like Carnival); put U up in good stead for NYC, New Orleans, SHANGHAI, Los Angeles; remember ME, remember HER, to one who lives there? ...She once was! She once WAS!... a true love of mine.
Are U going to Scarboro Fair? Some fixtures, some good folks...will meet U there? So long ago, without a care? Don't mention my name, in Scarboro Fair, SHE once was...a Cool Lay mine.
