You'll want some more from me (Chorley Mashers)
Co-write with 'The Chorley Mashers' (David Galbraith and Ian Jackson) A fun song in the traditional Lancashire folk style. There are also two more versions (fast and slow) by Brian Ralston of Australia. Many thanks to all.
I'm easily inspired either by personal experiences, things said in conversation, being given a challenge, or being moved or amused by something. Many genres.
Story behind the song

Lyrics
YOU'LL WANT SOME MORE FROM ME.
Al miss thi all the time mi love, but comin' home al sing,
Al bring thi what thi wants mi love, al bring a weddin' ring,
We'll get the horses lookin' good, with flowers in ther manes,
Al paint the carriage, make it fine, fer ridin' down the lane.
CHORUS
Al give thi lips a kiss mi love, maybe two or three,
When I get back am hopin’ that ya’ll want some more from me
Oh, ya’ll want some more from me! Ya’ll want some more from me
When I get back am hopin’ that ya’ll want some more from me
Al bring yer mam a cookin pan, shiny bright and new,
An’ rabbits from the field so she can make a rabbit stew.
Al paint the gate while Nancy gathers flowers from the Dale,
And Uncle Jack is up fer bringin’ barrel loads of ale
CHORUS
Al give thi lips a kiss mi love, maybe two or three,
When I get back am hopin’ that you’ll want some more from me
Oh, you’ll want some more from me mi love,
You’ll want some more from me
When I get back I’m hopin’ that
You’ll want some more from me
A’ll miss thi all the time mi love, but comin' home al sing,
Al bring thi what tha wants mi love, al fetch a weddin' ring,
We'll get the horses lookin' good, with flowers in ther manes,
Al paint the carriage, make it fine, fer ridin' down the lane.
BRIDGE
Old Joe'll play the fiddle, and the dancing will begin,
We'll drink to them, they'll drink to us, we'll drink to them again
The folks'll come from miles away to see our Weddin' Day,
And al never leave thi side mi love, al never go away.
CHORUS
Al give thi lips a kiss mi love, maybe two or three,
When I get back am hopin’ that you’ll want some more from me
Oh, you’ll want some more from me mi love,
You’ll want some more from me
When I get back I’m telling thee,
You’ll want some more from me
