Gracie Fields - The Thing-Ummy-Bob (That's Going To Win The War) (Karaoke Version with Lyrics) Instrumental in Original Key.

Song Lyrics:

I CAN'T PRETEND TO BE
A GREAT CELEBRITY, BUT
STILL I'M QUITE
IMPORTANT IN ME WAY

THE JOB I HAVE TO DO
MAY NOT SOUND MUCH TO YOU
BUT ALL THE SAME
I'M VERY PROUD TO SAY

I'M THE GIRL THAT MAKES THE
THING THAT DRILLS THE HOLE
THAT HOLDS THE RING THAT
DRIVES THE ROD THAT TURNS
THE KNOB THAT WORKS
THE THING-UMMY-BOB

I'M THE GIRL THAT MAKES THE
THING THAT HOLDS THE OIL
THAT OILS THE RING THAT
TAKES THE SHANK THAT MOVES
THE CRANK THAT WORKS
THE THING-UMMY-BOB

IT'S A TICKLISH SORT OF JOB
MAKING A THING
FOR A THING-UMMY-BOB
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU
DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S FOR...

BUT IT'S THE GIRL THAT MAKES
THE THING THAT DRILLS
THE HOLE THAT HOLDS
THE RING THAT MAKES
THE THING-UMMY-BOB
THAT MAKES THE ENGINES ROAR

AND IT'S THE GIRL THAT MAKES
THE THING THAT HOLDS THE OIL
THAT OILS THE RING THAT MAKES
THE THING-UMMY-BOB
THAT'S GOING TO WIN THE WAR

I'M NOT WHAT YOU WOULD CALL
A HEROINE AT ALL
I DON'T SUPPOSE
YOU'D EVEN KNOW ME NAME

BUT THOUGH I'LL NEVER BOAST
OF MY IMPORTANT POST
I'LL STRIKE A BLOW
FOR FREEDOM JUST THE SAME

THAT WORKS
THE THING-UMMY-BOB

THAT WORKS
THE THING-UMMY-BOB

IT'S A TICKLISH SORT OF JOB
MAKING A THING
FOR A THING-UMMY-BOB
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU
DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S FOR...

BUT IT'S THE GIRL THAT MAKES
THE THING THAT DRILLS
THE HOLE THAT HOLDS
THE RING THAT MAKES
THE THING-UMMY-BOB
THAT MAKES THE ENGINES ROAR

AND IT'S THE GIRL THAT MAKES
THE THING THAT HOLDS THE OIL
THAT OILS THE RING THAT MAKES
THE THING-UMMY-BOB
THAT'S GOING TO WIN THE WAR
IT IS 'N' ALL
