To the tune of The Bllad of John and Yoko (Lennon/ Mcartney)

THE BALLAD OF ANNE & TONY

Office party out with Ritrama,

Trying to get Anne up for a dance,

A man we call Mac, said you got to turn back

You know they didn’t even give us a chance

 

Christ you know it ain’t easy,

You know how hard it can be

Working together at Ritrama is going to crucify me,

 

Finally took the car into Eccles

Honey mooning down Warehouse J,

Len Evans called to say

You can make it OK

You can get married as long as we get our pay

 

Christ you know it ain’t easy,

You know how hard it can be

Working together at Ritrama is going to crucify me,

 

Drove from Eccles to our house by the East Lancs

Talking in our bed for a week

Mark Evans rang to say what you doing in bed?

We said were only trying to get us some sleep

 

Christ you know it ain’t easy,

You know how hard it can be

Working together at Ritrama is going to crucify me,

 

Saving up our money for our wedding

Even looking for some charity,

Last night Anne said

Oh boy when you’re dead

You won’t take nothing with you but your soul- Think!!!!

 

Made a lightning trip to our wedding

Bought some chocolate cake for the staff

Our face book page said we had become wed,

No longer just having a laugh

 

Christ you know it ain’t easy,

You know how hard it can be

Working together at Ritrama is going to crucify me,

 

Got the early car to Ritrama

Hoping we hadn’t been given the Sack,

Shop floor and the staff said we wish you success

It’s good to have the both of you back

 

Christ you know it ain’t easy,

You know how hard it can be

Working together at Ritrama is going to crucify me,
