Where's Mi Washboard? (The Love I Lost - Part II)

about

At Bakewell music festival we lost a member of our family . . . This is 'Part II' of the songs that emerged from this torrid tale . . . :-(
If you like it and CARE about the plight of washboards please SHARE ...

lyrics

Where oh where is mi washboard
Where oh where did she go
Oh where o where is mi washboard
Where she is I'll never know

She left me for another
She left me for another man
I'm gonna shoot down the bounder
Who stole away my gal

So if you see a man with a washboard
That he recently acquired
Won't you send him round to look
Down the barrel of this gun that I hired

Whistling verse

So we got ourselves a pretty washboard
And she'd play a tune mighty wild
But we weren't to know she was pregnant
Now we got a little washboard child

Then we met the Irish Rover
He's the funkiest kind of guy
Said he fancied a slot in the band
So we gave him a Zydeco Tie

This song's got a pretty washboard
And its got a Zydeco tie .....
You can hear the Irish Rover
Can you hear that washboard child

Washboard solo

Where oh where is mi washboard
Where oh where did she go
Oh where o where is mi washboard
Where she is I'll never know ...Or will I?
