Verse 4

Thank you, Pete, that was great,

make.

Week before Christmas,

Pete and I, and Mike over there,

went and did a little show

with my daughter Sam. band.

She's formed this ukulele

orchestra.

There's about 50 of them.

And we promised we'd

go and do a show with them.

And she booked the village hall.

And we went down there

the week before Christmas

in two inches of ice.

And when we got there

in this tiny little village

miles from anywhere,

there was more people in the band

than there was in the audience.

Which was strange because

the night before

we played to 8 ,000 people

with Status Quo in Glasgow.

But I tell you what,

I had a fantastic time.

And to hear all these amateur ukulele players,


and the ukulele really is a

wonderful instrument.

And they're easy to play,

anyone can play one in a

couple of days.

They should put them on the

National Health,

mate, I'm telling you,

they cheer people up.

Anyway we went and played

with this little ukulele orchestra

and tell you what we had a wonderful time

to hear them all just amateur you know just trying

to get it right and playing 50 or more

so it was just wonderful evening

and they did a song on the show

which I've always liked this song

it's an old cowboy song

but it was featured in a film called

Oh Brother Where Art Thou

and it's called In The Jailhouse Now.

In the jailhouse now, boys.

How did you like the song?
