One, two, three, four

Hey baby come round
Keep holding me down
And I’ll be keeping you up tonight.

The four letter word got stuck in my head
The dirtiest word that I’ve ever said
It’s making me feel alright.

For what it’s worth I love you
And what is worse I really do
Oh what is worse I’m gonna run run run
‘Till the sweetness gets to you
And what is worse I love you!

Hey please baby come back
There’ll be no more loving attack
And I’ll be keeping it cool tonight.

The four letter word is out of my head
Come on around get back in my bed
Keep making me feel alright.

For what it’s worth I like you
And what is worse I really do
Things have been worse
And we had fun fun fun
‘Till I said I love you
And what is worse I really do!

For what it’s worth I love you
And what is worse I really do.
Oh

For what it’s worth I love you
And what is worse I really do.
Oh

For what it’s worth I love you
And what is worse I really do….

Stackridge first album was released in 1971. This is a British folk, pop and progressive rock group who were at the height of their success during the early 1970s.

“The debut album from Stackridge consists of nine curiously light folk-tinged tracks, with elements of progressive rock cropping up here and there in the friendly Canterbury style. Their music takes on the classic storytelling route, but is bolstered and heightened by instruments like violins, flutes, cellos, trumpets, and the distinct sound of the harmonium played by Andrew Creswell-Davis. Both James Warren and Creswell-Davis take turns at singing such merry lyrical excerpts as “40 missing floorboards, 50 frantic far-out mice below,” sounding attractively waggish and peculiarly quaint in doing so. Without coming off as overly Celtic or far too English,
Stackridge culminates the humor and the essence of figurative devices and lays them out within the field of woodwind and stringed instruments. With barely any percussion, songs like “Percy the Penguin” and “The Three Legged Table” carry out their jovial entendres to the eloquence of hand-plucked piano strings and a trio of trumpets. Their refined singing style helps each song render its own character and eccentricity when added to the numerous instruments. The albums that followed such as Friendliness and The Man in the Bowler Hat housed the same poetic components as their first release with the music sounding more progressive and slightly commercial. “

They are ones of my most loved musicians.
