about

A tender song about a young man with a very unusual taste in lovers.

lyrics

I may not have a lady but iv got my ukulele
In my darkest hours her dulcet tones reach through the fog and save me
She never gives me grief and she never acts that crazy
She always gives me blessings and she never calls me lazy

One fateful night a lonely Greg all by himself did shout
A lonesome weary traveller with nobody about
While he stared into her fretboard, she gave a ukulele pout
He grabbed her body passionately and fucking strummed one out

I may not have a lady but iv got my ukulele
In my darkest hours her dulcet tones reach through the fog and save me
She never gives me grief and she never acts that crazy
She always gives me blessings and she never calls me lazy

Cos she’s my Ukulele princess, she's my ukulele Queen.
Ill have us both locked down in ukulele quarantine.
She never seems to question where iv been or who iv seen.
We’re the undisputed leaders of our ukulele scene.

I may not have a lady but iv got my ukulele
In my darkest hours her dulcet tones reach through the fog and save me
She never gives me grief and she never acts that crazy
She always gives me blessings and she never calls me lazy

When you love your Uke so openly, you get some funny stares.
She's a self confessed free spirit with no ukulele cares.
Her tuneful spontaneity will catch you unawares.
She smiles and shrugs her shoulders and this is what she says, she says.

I may not have a lady but iv got my ukulele
In my darkest hours her dulcet tones reach through the fog and save me
She never gives me grief and she never acts that crazy
She always gives me blessings and she never calls me lazy
she says

I love her curves, I love her rhythm, love her rounded oak carved trunk.
She plays blues and jazz and soul and country, folk and dance and funk.
She's an artist in her own right, not a gui-tar that's been shrunk
She's my ukulele babe and I'm her ukulele hunk.

I may not have a lady but iv got my ukulele
In my darkest hours her dulcet tones reach through the fog and save me
She never gives me grief and she never acts that crazy
She always gives me blessings and she never calls me lazy
