Knees up Mother Brown
Maybe its because I'm a Londoner
My Old Man's a Dustman
Doing the Lambeth Walk
Can anyone think of any more?

Why? Me and my other half were discussing it. He's cockney by birth (but grew up in Kent) and I'm Welsh and I was singing a Welsh folksong to our baby son (8 months old) and my other half joked that we should teach him the "other" side of his heritage by singing him some cockney songs, but we couldn't think of many!

Don't Dilly Dally (My Old Man Said Follow The Van)
(Charles Collins and Fred W. Leigh)
As performed by Jill Daniels
My old man said, "Follow the van, don't dilly dally on the way!"
Off went the cart with the home packed in it,
I walked behind with me old c#ck linnet.
But I dillied and dallied, dallied and dillied,
Lost the van and don't know where to roam.
You can't trust the specials like the old-time coppers
When you can't find your way home.

But I dillied and dallied, dallied and dillied,
Lost the van and don't know where to roam.
Now who's going to put up the old iron bedstead
If I can't find my way home

pop goes the weasel is probably the oldest, the eagle pub is still on City Road (i believe, it might be called something else)
it relates to spending all your money
"up and down the city road, in and out the eagle, that's where the money goes. Pop goes the weasel"

I think the song Friday by Rebecca Black has the most ridiculous lyrics. This is because during the song, it just keeps on repeating "Friday, Friday, Friday" for like 3 minutes.
