Song puns about British place names (please)

Following our holiday to Devon last week the theme to our next radio show will be all about UK place names. Some obvious ones are Eton Rifles, Long haired lover from Liverpool and London's Calling but I'm looking for puns too. Here are a few that we've had so far. :)

Highway to Hull
Here comes the Sunderland
Devon is a place on earth
Sweet child o' Minehead
Hit me baby one more Tyne
Stranger On The Shoreditch
Life in a Northampton Town
Touched By The Hand Of Godalming
Bournemouth to be wild
Ding Dong the Ipswich is dead

...some bands...

The Stroody Blues
Shalamargate
Abbadeen

...but my personal favourite...

It's Rainham, men by the Wetherby Girls :)
