HOW TO SHORTEN

(Clothes) Line CONVALESCENCE

It takes a soldier to know the stuff to give the troops--especial- ly in the song line.

And so Jimmy Kennedy, a gun- ncr the Anti-Aircraft, and his partner, Michael Carr, wrote the first big war-timo comedy song.

It's called "We're Gonna Hanz Out the Washing on the Siegfried Line," and Arthur Askey "bap- tised" it in the B.B.C.'s “Band Waggon."

The song was written in the odd hours that Kennedy was able to snatch from camp duties, and it has a rollicking melody and words that are crazy enough to catch on. You might as well get to know them because you're likely, to be hearing them a lot!

We're going to hang out the washing on die Slezfeled Line, Have you any dirty washing,

mother dear?

We're going to hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line, 'Cos washing day is here. Whether the weather's wet or

fine,

We'll rub along without a care. We're going to hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line. If the Siegfried Line's still there!
