Three Bells - Brian Poole and the Tremeloes Composer: Gilles Reisfeld Reached #17 in UK in 1965. A cover with extras of the Browns song. [Intro] [Verse 1] There’s a village hidden deep in the valley Among the pine trees half forlorn And there on a sunny morning Little Jimmy Brown was born So his parents took him to the chapel When he was only one day old And the priest blessed the little fellow Welcomed Jimmy to the fold  ( Baum baum baum baum ) [Chorus] All the chapel bells were ringing in the little valley town And the song that they were singing was for baby Jimmy Brown And the little congregation    prayed for guidance from above   "Lead us not into temptation bless this hour of meditation" "Guide him with eternal love" [Verse 2] There’s a village hidden deep in the valley Beneath the mountains high above And there twenty years thereafter Jimmy was to meet his love Many friends were gathered in the chapel And many tears of joy were shed In June on a Sunday morning Jimmy and his wife were wed. ( Baum baum baum baum ) [Chorus] All the chapel bells were ringing ’twas a great day in his life for the song that they were singing was for Jimmy and his wife And the little congregation   prayed for guidance from above "Lead us not into temptation bless with us this celebration" "May their lives be filled with love" [Verse 3] From the village hidden deep in the valley One rainy morning dark and gray A soul winged its way to heaven Jimmy Brown had passed away Silent people gathered in the chapel To say farewell to their old friend Whose life had been like a flower Budding blooming till the end ( Baum baum baum baum ) [Outro] Just a lonely bell was ringing in the little valley town and the song that they were singing   was for good old Jimmy Brown (little Jimmy Brown) And the little congregation   prayed for guidance from above "Lead us not into temptation may his soul find the salvation of thy great eternal love"
