Question:
Marie Lloyd/Music Hall song lyrics?
Does anyone know where I can get hold of the lyrics for the songs of Marie Lloyd. I saw the programme about her on BBC4 recently and the songs looked really funny.
Answers:
In her teens, the younger Matilda Wood adopted the name Marie Lloyd.
Marie Lloyd was London's very own Cockney Sparrow and in her day there was none so famous.
Strange that she should die on stage doing what she loved most.
Oh well!
