Anyone know the name of the song Mrs Cratchit and her kids were singing when Scrooge and the Ghost of Christmas Present first arrive at the house?
shareI tried googleing the lyrics but can't find anything, because I have been wondering too. That song gets stuck in my head even when it's not christmas time.

There was a thread on here some time ago with info about that. It is a real song but the poster had found that Dickens book predates the song, or at least the offically published song did not appear on record until the late 1800s. There was a link to the full set of lyrics. I think it's called We've All Been Havin' A Go.

''Talk about a penn'orth of fun
''Yesterday it fair took the bun
''ln came the broker's men
To collar our few sticks
''But we were up to all their tricks
''We've all been having a go at 'em
We've all been having a go
''One's in the dusthold minus pants
The other's gone home in an ambulance
''Oh good gracious, didn't we make a show
''Seventeen of us besides myself
''And, we've all been having a go
''Oh, we've all been having a go
''Yeah, we've all been having a go''
Found it:
It's called We've All Been Having a Go
