Dear Colleagues,

 

Could anyone send me Amanda Lear�s lyric about Salomon Grundy /Solomon Gundy/?

It�s a version of the nursery rhyme but unfortunately I don�t understand some words. I searched it on the net but I haven �t found it yet.

Thanks in advance,

Kriszta

Is this what you are after ?
 
Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
Married on a gray and grisly Wednesday,
Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday.
That was the end of Solomon Grundy.

Kriszta it is so hard to hear and the last verse is even more mumbled but this is what I got from this version for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuZ1E_U5k5M&NR=1

Solomon Gundy, he was born on a Saturday

Fell in love on a Friday

Married on a Sunday

Wohowo x4

Solomon Gundy, he was sick on a Tuesday

Getting worse on a Wednesday

Locked in jail on a Thursday.

Wohowo x4

Though the night is heading into turning

 He said Lipper Tree�s my fight,

Freedom of the journey ,

What�s the price for you, my bride

He�s just a cassanova, instead  he was a poor sight

We thought he was wanted, d�cor��

Ooo, Solomon Gundy,

Caught on a Monday

Escaped on a Tuesday.

Found his fight on a Wednesday

Wohowo x4

Let me tell you about � Solomon Gundy

Was betrayed on a Sunday

Put in jail on a Thursday

Strangled[or straighted] up on a Monday

Wohowo x4

So they found him, in the morning

In the arms of love

How it happened, in the night time

Those stars above

It�s the story of Solomon Gundy

He was born on a Saturday

Fell in love on a Friday, Married on a Sunday

Wohowo x4

 

;o)

this is how I learnt when I was a child:
Solomon Grundy,

Born on Monday,

Christened on Tuesday,

Married on Wednesday,

Took ill on Thursday,

Worse on Friday,

Died on Saturday,

Buried on Sunday,

This is the end,

Of Solomon Grundy.

glad to be able to help you.Bye.
