Herbert Farjeon

Herbert Farjeon was a major figure in the British theatre from 1910 until his death. He was a presenter of revues in London's West End, a theatre critic, lyricist, librettist, playwright, theatre manager and researcher....

 at the height of the popularity of Edward, Prince of Wales -unprecedented to that date for an heir to the throne- later Edward VIII of the United Kingdom.

The girl that inspired the song was Edna Deane, a ballroom dancing champion.

I've danced with a man, who's danced with a girl, who's danced with the Prince of Wales.

It was simply grand, he said "Topping band" and she said "Delightful, Sir"

Glory, Glory, Alleluia! I'm the luckiest of females

For I've danced with a man, who's danced with a girl, who's danced with the Prince of Wales.

My word I've had a party, my word I've had a spree

Believe me or believe me not, it's all the same to me!

I'm wild with exultation, I'm dizzy with success

For I've danced with a man, I've danced with a man-

Who

Well, you'll never guess

I've danced with a man, who's danced with a girl, who's danced with the Prince of Wales.

I'm crazy with excitement, completely off the rails

And when he said to me what she said to him -the Prince remarked to her

It was simply grand, he said "Topping band" and she said "Delightful, Sir"

Glory, Glory, Alleluia! I'm the luckiest of females;

For I've danced with a man, who's danced with a girl, who's danced with the Prince of Wales.

The song was used as the theme for the 1978 ITV
