Doddy
On February the 7th 1978
“Ken Dodd” was absolutely great
Nottingham's renovated theatre
He was there the first night
The audience loved him
He was such a delight
When he came on stage
What a thrill
That's why he was ranked
High on the bill
Now for 55 years he's been telling jokes
He tickled us all at one time
His diddy men, his tickling stick
His teeth was another famous sign
His jokes may be out-dated
And he”s not so highly rated
But we had Ken at his best
He always impressed
And kept us longer than stated
Now Ken's at a ripe old age
We love him on and off the stage
Good things come to an end
So we won't pretend
Nottingham loves you Ken
You're a “legend”!
