Biografia:
George Formby no es solamente un icono del entertainment británico, sino que su música fue influencia fundamental en el nacimiento del skiffle inglés, estilo claramente enraizado en el Country y en el folk estadounidenses. No sería exagerado afirmar, pues, que sin Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly o Formby, jamás habría existido Lonnie Donegan.
Además, fue precursor de un instrumento del que no se suele hablar demasiado: el banjolele (o banjulele)

(Intro)
C G7 C
C G7 C
Now everybody's got a crazy notion of their own
F C D7 G7
Some like to mix up with a crowd, some like to be alone
F C
It's no one else's business as far as I can see
D7 G7
But every time that I go out the people stare at me
C
With my little ukulele in my hand
F C
Of course the people do not understand
G7 C
Some say "Why don't you be a scamp?, Why don't you read a book?"
D7 G7
But I get lots more pleasure when I'm playing with me uke!
C E7 Am C7
Of course I take no notice you can tell
F G7
For mother's sound advice will always stand
C E7 A7 Dm
She said "My boy do as I say and you'll never go astray
G7 C G7 C E7 A7
If you keep that ukulele in your hand, yes, son,
D7 G7 C
Keep your ukulele in your hand!"
C G7 C
While walking on the prom one night as peaceful as can be
F C D7 G7
When some young girl said "What about a walk down by the sea?"
F C
She said her name was Min and she'd just come for the day
D7 G7
She looked so young and harmless that I couldn't turn away
C
So with my little ukulele in my hand
F C
Me and Min we walked along the sand
G7 C
We walked along for miles without a single care or frown
D7 G7
But when we reached the sand dunes she said "Come on let's sit down."
C E7 Am C7
I felt so shy and bashful sitting there
F G7
'Cause the things she said I didn't understand
C E7 A7 Dm
She said "Your love just makes my dizzy, come on big boy get busy..."
G7 C G7 C E7 A7
But I kept my ukulele in my hand, yes, sir,
D7 G7 C
I kept my ukulele in my hand!
C G7 C
Made up my mind that I'd get wed some eighteen months ago
F C D7 G7
I also bought a book about the things a boy should know
F C
But just about a week ago I had an awful fright
D7 G7
I had to get dressed quickly in the middle of the night
C
And with my little ukulele in my hand
F C
I went running down the street to Doctor Brand
G7 C
It didn't take him long to get his bag of tools
D7 G7
I held his hat and coat and let him have me book of rules
C E7 Am C7
Out the bedroom door he looked and smiled
F G7
He said "Come on in and see your wife and child.'
C E7 A7 Dm
My heart it filled with joy, I could see it was a boy
G7 C G7 C E7 A7
For he had a ukulele in his hand, oh, baby,
D7 G7
He had a ukulele
D7 G7
He had a ukulele
D7 G7 C G7 C
He had a ukulele in his hand!
C G7 C
