Recently placed on one of my other blogs
There was a pub in
Newport town
They called the Rising
Sun
They changed it to
the Harlequin;
It's now a restaurant.
My mother was a Thomas
She sewed my old blue
jeans,
My father came from
Corpor Road
They lived up in
Cwmbran.
I once met gransha in
that pub,
Into that haunt he'd
slunk.
He looked so very
satisfied,
He was a little drunk.
Oh mother tell your
children
Why the name of
Harlequin
Is still found on the
roundabout
And how it was The
Rising Sun
I have one foot on the
platform
The other on a train
And I'm goin' back to
Newport town,
It looks like it might
rain.
Yeah, there was a pub
in Newport town
They called The Rising
Sun,
I remember it from when
a boy
And I'm not the only
one.
