Reggie (the red nosed Postman)
New Words by Geoff Edkins

To be fair this one didn’t reach number one but we thought we would
include it especially for Reg as the story seemed appropriate.

Reggie the red nosed postie had a very fine moustache
And if you ever saw it you would have to stare and gasp

My, how the Roy’l Mail bosses made him work right through the night
They went and kept poor Reggie and his whiskers out of sight

Down the pub one Christmas Eve the barman turned and said
“Reggie, with your whiskers fine will you strain this cloudy wine?” 

My how the others loved him cheered and shouted out his name
“Reggie the red-nosed Postie, may your whiskers never change”

Reggie the red nosed postie had a very fine moustache
And if you ever saw it you would have to stare and gasp

My, how the Roy’l Mail bosses made him work right through the night
They went and kept poor Reggie and his whiskers out of sight

Down the pub one Christmas Eve the barman turned and said
“Reggie, with your facial hair will you strain this cloudy beer?” 

My how the others loved him and they shouted out with glee 
“Reggie the red-nosed Postie, you'll go down in history!“
