Heute im Netz gefunden, nett nicht wahr?
Spätestens beim Refrain hat man die Melodie wieder drauf.... :D

The Land Rover Song
(To the tune of the Irish folk song "Wild Rover".)

I’ve owned a Land Rover for many a year
I use it to carry my whisky and beer
When we're on safari with Rovers galore
We all give three cheers for this great 4 x 4

CHORUS
And it’s no, nay, never, no nay never no more
Will I sell my Land Rover, no never, no more

I bought a Toyota to go to South West
But wasn’t convinced that it really was best
I tried a Suzuki but threw it away
‘Cos a Land Rovers better, so what do you say
CHORUS

My bearings are buggered, the swivel pins too
The steering it wobbles, my problems are few
The leaks from the gear box and diff are so slow
So I'll check all the levels when the damn thing won’t go
CHORUS

A Range Rovers faster, but uses more fuel
The people who drive them they look rather cool
It’s from the same stable but has better springs
But let’s face it folks it’s just not the real thing
CHORUS

A Forward Control doesn’t look quite so nice
But they used to be had for a very good price
Some of us think they do have their charms!
Just take a good look at "The Old Charlton Arms"
CHORUS

At rallies the Shorties they always come first
But the drivers all seem to develop a thirst
Series Ones, Twos and Threes all have their own place
And now the One Tens are the first in the race
CHORUS

I bought an old Landy and stripped with care
A 2A from Solihull is really quite rare
But how to repair it I asked in the Pub
They said to apply to the Land Rover Club
CHORUS

The Landy Club members were quite a surprise
They all seemed to be such a nice bunch of guys
It’s thanks to them that I now know much more
About the Land Rover, that great 4 x 4
CHORUS

While we are singing there’s one thing to say
I’m sure we're all loving our wonderful stay
It’s thanks to you all that I know so much more
About the Land Rover – that great 4 x 4
CHORUS

Hallo Düssellandy
Na das ist ja super mit dem Song.
Ich hatte auch schon öfter mal nach solch Lied gesucht.
Kann man das irgendwo im www. auch als mp3 o.ä. saugen?
Weisst Du vielleicht auch von wem das Lied ist?
vielen Dank und schönes Wochenende.
viele grüsse Dirk

Hallo zusammen,

Hier wenigstens eine Kostprobe (http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000579N3/qid=1069518584/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_10_5/028-6358222-2697306) des Originals von den Dubliners, die Nordlichter kennen das mit dem Text " An der Nordseeküste..."

Ob es die *Land-Rover* Version irgendwo gibt, weiß ich nicht, aber die singen wir dann am 13. Dezember !

Ansonsten: Ne schöne Tour morgen fahren, und dann aus vollem Halse singen...

...and it's no, nay, never...... :D

Hier noch einer.

I got my first Land Rover
Sung to the the tune of 'Summer of '69' by Bryan Adams
- Tim Ansell

I got my first Land Rover
Bought it from a friend of mine
Crashed it ‘cos the brakes weren’t bled
It was a leaf sprung 109

Me and some guys from work
Had a team and we tried real hard
Gearbox quit and axles got buried
I shoulda known we'd never get far

Oh when I look back now
The desert seemed to last forever
And if I had the fuel
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a race to run
Spent my evenin's down at the bivouac
That's where I have my fun

Smellin’ like a burned out clutch
I thought that it would last forever
New replacement cost so much
I bought it on the never never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in my leaf sprung 109

Man we were killin' time
We were young and winchless
We needed to unwind
I guess Rovers can last forever - forever,

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I drive that old Rover
I think ‘bout all the bits gone wrong

Tryin to fix a burned out clutch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you squeezed my crutch
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in my leaf spring 109
