The words and music of "We're gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried line as played by Joe Loss and his band.
Personal remarks:
I bought this unsubtle propaganda period piece in a Malvern second-hand book shop in 1992. I've never got around to performing it, probably not a very good idea here in Germany!
It originally cost 6d., I paid a whopping £2.
