Pub song
In English popular culture, the "traditional" pub songs typified by the Cockney "knees up " mostly come from the classics of the Music Hall, along with numbers from film, the stage and other forms of popular music.
The tradition is continued in the UK by acts such as Chas 'n' Dave , many of whose works are in a 'pub song' format.
Typical songs include:
- My Old Man's a Dustman
- Underneath the Arches
- Where Did You Get That Hat?
- Knees Up Mother Brown
- Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me a Bow Wow
- Any Old Iron
