in a village in old siam, sir, there's a lady who's lost her way.
in an effort to find a man, sir, she found herself in the old uk.
she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
in a village in old east end, sir, she mea fellow who made her real.
took her rushes to show, this man, sir,
he met her dad at the wedding meal.
[guitar solo]
in a letter from old siam, sir, came an awful tale of woe.
she decided the only answer was to get off a pile of dough.
she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
when a relative told her man, sir, he directed her not to stay.
in a village in old siam, sir, there's a lady who'se lost her way.

in a village in old siam, sir, there's a lady who'se lost her way.

she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
she waited 'round in walthamstowe, she skated 'round in scarborough.
