They told me this morning
That you won the race
For Granny and Grandad
The kid took first place
They said you got a lady
Well that's just right
You're calling her Ruthy
Well that's outasight

Remember to show her
What life is all about
Bargap Road and Oldham Edge her place
Remember to pass on
All the things that see you through
Pearls of wisdom from Frederick The Great

They tell me she's pretty
Well that's no surprise
Just give her a guitar
And start her off right
They say she's a longhair
I hope Frank don't mind
And Peter's got a sweat on
‘Till she's sealed and signed

Remember to show her
What life is all about
Bargap Road and Oldham Edge her place
Remember to pass on
All the things that see you through
Pearls of wisdom from Frederick The Great
