Oh! The Blackpool Belle was a get-away train that went from Northern Station,
What a beautiful sight on a Saturday night, bound for the 'luminations.
No mothers and dads, just girls and lads, young and fancy-free
Out for the laughs on the Golden Mile at Blackpool by the Sea.
CHORUS:
I remember very well
All the happy gang aboard the Blackpool Belle.
I remember them pals of mine
When I ride the Blackpool Line,
And the songs we sang together on the Blackpool Belle.
Little Piggy Greenfield he was there. He thought he was mighty slick.
He bought a hat on the Golden Mile. The hat said "Kiss me quick".
Piggy was a lad for all the girls, but he drank too much beer.
He made a pass at a Liverpool lass and she pushed him off the pier.
CHORUS
Ice-cream Sally could never settle down. She lived for her Knickerbocker Glories,
Till she clicked with a bloke who said he was broke, but she loved his ice-cream stories.
She took it all in with a smile and a grin. She fell for Sailor Jack.
They went for a trip to the Isle of Man and never did come back.
CHORUS
Now some of us went up the Blackpool Tower, others in the Tunnel of Love.
A few made off for the Blackpool Sands under the pier above.
There was always a rush at the midnight hour, but we made it just the same,
And I made off with a Liverpool lass, but I could never remember her name.
CHORUS
Now the Blackpool Belle has a thousand tales if they could all be told.
Many of these I will recall as I am growing old.
They were happy days and I miss the times as we pulled the curtains down,
And the passion wagon would steam back home as we would go to town.
