HI-FI PIDDLY PO (Pete Ham)
[Iveys demo from "How Much Is The Sky (The Iveys Anthology Vol. 4)" CD - recorded 1968 - released 2024]

I've traveled over land, I've traveled over sea
Trying to find my baby, my baby, just for me
I haven't found one yet, but this, I don't regret
'Cos looking for my baby's much more fun

Hi-fi piddly po
Looking for my babe in every town
Hi-fi piddly po
Baby, I'm too young to settle down

First, I think I will, then I think I won't
"Marry one, I mean," but something tells me, "Don't!"
So then I carry on, I know it won't be long
And while I wait, I'm having me some fun

Hi-fi piddly po
Looking for my babe in every town
Hi-fi piddly po
Baby, I'm too young to settle down

I think that I'm in love, as many times I've been
Until they start to plan a trip to Gretna Green
And then I'll lose my mind, and a new babe, I must find
'Cos looking for my baby's much more fun

Hi-fi piddly po
Looking for my babe in every town
Hi-fi piddly po
Baby, I'm too young to settle down
