Chavvy days


Oh the chavvy days on Canfords heaths
where us zunner kids did cut out teeth
whilst wagons rolled and vardos roamed
amidst heathered bracken and fern rich home

Oh the nights were cold upon the down
of wallisdown and kinson town
where Whites and Turners came to call
Coopers Kings and chavvys all

the pylons stretched for many a mile
from cuckoo bottom to home of lady Guests attire
where rabbits frequented the fern rich downs
whilst fox did hide high above the crown

Augustus john did sketch the zunners sweet
whilst lady Mary clapcott stretched with beauty down to her naked feet
newtown zunners under wimborne bridge
collected falling coins from kings rich carriages

the hills of canford magna rich in rhoedenrun ditch
the flowers of the lily spread where heathers sweet aroma rich
the cans and tins of yesterday amidst the smoke of clay pipe days
where chavvys sported catapult and net for rabbits rich in lorded debts

the run of hills and trees so rich with blossom scents and caravans unhitched
the songs of piano accordian darky echoed free from wallisdown to alderney
whilst zunners ran and chavvys played upon the heaths
just yesterdays
