I have unfortunately lost my friend and Brother in Law (Rich Hellstrom) to Cancer this weekend. He was a top bloke despite being a season ticket holder at KR and part of a rovers family.
His funeral is on Friday and the family are wanting to have the red red robin song at the end. This sing song will be led by myself and another big Hull FC fan, which i am sure would have made him laugh. Is there a version of the song that we should sing and does anyone know where i can get it at short notice, as i need to send it to the funeral directors. I also need the lyrics as these will be going in the order of service.
When the red, red robin comes
Bob, bob bobbin’ along, a - long,
there’ll be no more sobbin’ when
He starts throbbin’ his old, sweet song.
Wake up, wake up, you sleepy head;
get up, get up, get out of bed.
Cheer up, cheer up -- the sun is red.
Live, love, laugh and be hap - py.
What if I’ve been blue,
now I'm walk - in’ through fields of flow’rs
Rain may glisten, but still I list - en for hours and hours.
I’m just a kid a - gain,
do - in’ what I did a - gain,
sing - in’ a song
When the red, red robin comes
Bob, bob bobbin’ along.

Thanks
IT WILL BE THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME I EVER SING IT THOUGH
I heard a robin this mornin'
I’m feelin' happy today.
Gonna pack my cares in a whistle,
Gonna blow them all away.
What if I’ve been unlucky,
Really I aint got a pain.
There’s a time I always feel happy,
As a happy as a king.
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along, along.
There'll be no more sobbin' when he starts throbbin' his own sweet song.
Wake up, wake up you sleepy heads.
Get up, get up, get out of bed.
Cheer up, cheer up, the Sun is red.
Live, love, laugh and be happy.
What if I've been blue, now I'm walking through fields of flowers.
Rain may glisten but still I listen for hours and hours.
I'm just a kid again doing what I did again, singing this song.
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along.
