London Pride 歌詞
London Pride - Noel Coward and Orchestra/Alan Breeze
Written by：Noel Coward
London pride has been handed down to us
London pride is a flower that's free
London pride means our own dear town to us
And our pride it forever will be
Woa Liza
See the coster barrows
The vegetable marrows and the fruit piled high
Woa Liza little London sparrows
Covent garden market where the costers cry
Cockney feet mark the beat of history
Every street pins a memory down
Nothing ever
Can quite replace
The grace of London town
There's a little city flower every spring unfailing
Growing in the crevices
By some London railing
Though it has a latin name
In town and country side
We in England call it
London pride
London pride has been handed down to us
London pride is a flower that's free
London pride means our own dear town to us
And our pride it forever will be
Hey lady
When the day is dawning
See the policeman yawning
On his lonely beat
Gay lady
Mayfair in the morning
Hear your footsteps echo
In the empty street
Early rain and the pavement's glistening
All park lane in a shimmering gown
Nothing ever
Could break or harm of
The charm of London town
In our city darkened now
Street and square and crescent
We can feel our living past
In our shadowed present
Ghosts beside our starlit thames
Who lived and loved and died
Keep throughout the ages
London pride
London pride has been handed down to us
London pride is a flower that's free
London pride means our own dear town to us
And our pride it forever will be
Grey city
Stubbornly implanted
Taken so for granted for a thousand years
Stay city
Smokily enchanted
Cradle of our memories
Our hopes and fears
Every blitz your resistance
Toughening
From the ritz
To the anchor and crown
Nothing ever
Could override
The pride of London town
