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
