Biografía:
George Formby no es solamente un icono del entertainment británico, sino que su música fue influencia fundamental en el nacimiento del skiffle inglés, estilo claramente enraizado en el Country y en el folk estadounidenses. No sería exagerado afirmar, pues, que sin Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly o Formby, jamás habría existido Lonnie Donegan.
Además, fue precursor de un instrumento del que no se suele hablar demasiado: el banjolele (o banjulele)

[Intro]
D Gm D
When I used to find troubles come my way
D D/F# F#m
I always wished they wouldn't stay
A Dm6 A
But I'm not so sure since you came along
Bm7 Bm7#5 E13 Em7 A7
Whether I was right or wrong.
[Verse 1]
D D/F# Em7 A9
If you ask me would I entertain the lions at the zoo
D Bm7 E7 A7
By singing in beside them just before their lunch was due
D F#m7b5/C B7 Em7 A9
Would I do it? I'd do more, I'd do it with a smile.
[Verse 2]
D D/F# Em7 A9
If you ask me would I take a trip to Paris in the spring
D Bm7 E7 A9
And see the girls and watch the thrills and never do a thing
D F#m7b5/C B7 Em7 A9 D
Would I do it? I'd do more, I'd do it with a smile.
[Middle Eight]
Bm F#7 F#m7 B9 B7b9
I'm not a super sort of man, there isn't much that I can do but sing
Em B7 E7 Em7 A9
Yet if you watch me at a fight, I could knock Joe Louis out the ring
D D/F# Em7 A9
If you ask me to be hypnotized and go into a trance
D Bm7 E7 A9
Or even pay my income tax just ten years in advance.
D F#m7b5/C B7 Em7 A9 D
Would I do it? I'd do more, ya ma'am, I'd do it with a smile.
