  • Welcome to the
    It Ain't Half Hot Mum weblog!


    I created this weblog because this It Ain't Half Hot Mum is my favourite comedy series, and also because I wanted to get some pictures and songtexts from the series together. So if you remember the title of a song from the series, or if you know where to find anything else about it (websites, pictures on the web, expressions in Urdu etc.) be sure to tell me about it, preferably on my other weblog.

Stout-Hearted Men

You who have dreams
If you act, they'll come true
To turn your dreams to a fact
It's up to you
If you have the soul and the spirit
Never fear it, you'll see it through
Hearts can inspire
Other hearts with their fire
For the strong obey
When a strong man shows them the way

Give me some men who are stout-hearted men
Who will fight for the right they adore
Start me with ten who are stout-hearted men
And I'll soon give you ten thousand more

Shoulder to shoulder, and bolder and bolder
They grow as they go to the fore
Then there's nothing in the world
Can halt or mar a plan
When stout-hearted men
Can stick together - man - to man...

Oh...
Give me some men who are stout-hearted men
Who will fight for the right they adore
Start me with ten who are stout-hearted men
And I'll soon give you ten thousand more

Shoulder to shoulder, and bolder and bolder
They grow as they go to the fore
Then there's nothing in the world
Can halt or mar a plan
When stout-hearted men
Can stick together - man - to man...

Happy Days Are Here Again

So long sad times
Go long bad times
We are rid of you at last
Howdy gay times
Cloudy gray times
You are now a thing of the past

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So let's sing a song of cheer again
Happy days are here again

Altogether shout it now
There's no one
Who can doubt it now
So let's tell the world about it now
Happy days are here again

Your cares and troubles are gone
There'll be no more from now on
From now on...

Happy days are here again
The skies above are here again
So, let's sing a song of cheer again
Happy times
Happy nights
Happy days
Are here again!

(In episode The Jungle Patrol)

Music Hall Song

Here we are again, happy as can be
All good pals and jolly good company
Driving round the town, out upon a spree
All good pals and jolly good company
Never mind the weather, never mind the rain
Now we're all together, whoops she goes again
La dee dah dee dah, la dee dah dee dee
All good pals and jolly good company

Rule Britannia

Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

The White Cliffs of Dover

There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover,
Tomorrow, just you wait and see.

There'll be love and laughter
And peace ever after,
Tomorrow, when the world is free.

The shepherd will tend his sheep,
The valley will bloom again.
And Jimmy will go to sleep,
In his own little room again.

There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover,
Tomorrow, just you wait and see.

Moonlight Becomes You

Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair
You certainly know the right thing to wear
Moonlight becomes you, I'm thrilled at the sight
And I could get so romantic tonight

You're all dressed up to go dreaming
Now don't tell me I'm wrong
And what a night to go dreaming
Mind if I tag along

If I say I love you
I want you to know
It's not just because there's moonlight
Although, moonlight becomes you so

You're all dressed up to go dreaming
Now don't tell me I'm wrong
And what a night to go dreaming
Mind if I tag along

If I say I love you
I want you to know
It's not just because there's moonlight
Although, moonlight becomes you so

(In episode The Road to Bannu)

Gilbert The Filbert

I'm Gilbert, the Filbert, the Knut with a K,
The Pride of Piccadilly, the blasé roué;
Oh Hades, the ladies who leave their wooden huts
For Gilbert, the Filbert, the Kernel of the Knuts!

Whispering Grass

Sergeant Major (speaking):

You promised me, green grass
Not to tell what you 'eard
Whispering grass, say,
You can't keep your word
Keep your word, sing Lofty

Lofty (singing):

Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know
No, no
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know

Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret anymore
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know

Sergeant Major (speaking):

Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Oh yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret anymore
I will not have gossip in this jungle!

Lofty (singing):

Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
