I'm Making Headway Now - George Formby
Hello old pal I'm glad we've met
I've grown quite fond of you
You're quiet as a lamb
But don't forget well show them what to do
One another well stand by
To prove my words I mean to try
Youve got a kick and so have I
I'm making headway now
Of wheat and chaff weve ample stores
I know I'll never starve because
When I've eaten mine I'll start on yours
I'm making headway now
I've got my ambition
I'll be the talk of the town
I'll hold my position
They can't keep a growing lad down
I joined a gym for exercise
The lady instructor put me wise
She made me spare parts twice the size
I'm making headway now
I've got a job and I mean to score
For me theres something good in store
I won't clean windows anymore
I'm making headway now
I take a horsebox to the course
That takes quite a lot of force
I must be strong to box a horse
I'm making headway now
I've got my ambition
I'll be the talk of the town
I'll hold my position
They can't keep a growing lad down
Once I phoned the railway folk
'give me the goods' a lady spoke
She said 'I'm the goods'
And I said 'Thats oke'
I'm making headway now
I mean to join the ARP the fire brigade and the CID
I might even join the BBC I'm making headway now
A heavyweight I had to fight I said
'In my left theres dynamite
And a couple of horseshoes in my right
I'm making headway now
I've got my ambition
I'll be the talk of the town
I'll hold my position
They can't keep a growing lad down
Said the girl 'If your wife I should be of children
I'd like two or three'
I said 'You can leave all that to me'
I'm making headway now
