 This song can be found on the CD "The World of Benny Hill - Benny Hill
 Sings?" which includes 25 of his comedy classics. It also appeared on
 an old vinyl recording, "The Golden Hour of Benny Hill."
 I rise  at six and then I feed the chicks,
  And I'm feeling  lonesome and blue,
 And when I milk  the cow it seems, somehow,
  My thoughts  keep straying to you.
 And as the horse  and I plough the field  nearby,
  Your memory  I can't erase,
 For while I walk  at the rear of the horse, my dear,
  I  seem to see your face.
 I'm gonna sow  the seed of deep devotion, fertilize  it with emotion,
Water  it with warm desire and then I'll reap  the harvest of love.
 Yes, I was happy  as a pig in spite of the way that you looked at me,
  When I met  you at the village dance,
 But you  was in the ladies' excuse me at the time,
  I thought  I would never have a chance.
 But you let  me walk you home across  Blatt's Meadow,
  And I knew  that with you I should be a hit,
 'Cause I got  an old cow to get up walk away,
  So that you'd have somewhere  nice and dry to sit.
Side  by side we will take a ride,
  In my horse  and buggy one day,
 And when the daylight  ends and the night descends,
  And my horse'll  run out of hay,
 And I will kiss  your lips, those tempting  lips,
  The only  ones that can thrill  me,
 And I would hold  you tight 'neath the stars so bright,
  If the wife  ever finds out she'll kill  me.
 Chorus to fade
 This is one in a series of Benny Hill songs I've learned by ear. Most of
 these songs have only three chords which makes it easy figure them out. I
 might have missed some chords or put the wrong ones down, but the basic
 structure is there at any rate. I welcome any comments, corrections or
 suggestions for improvement.
