Lyrics:
done well by me
Byker Hill and Walker Shore, me lads
Collier lads for ever more, me boys
Byker Hill and Walker Shore, me lads
Collier lads for ever more
done well by me
Byker Hill and Walker Shore, me lads
Collier lads for ever more, me boys
Byker Hill and Walker Shore, me lads
Collier lads for ever more
to find romance
Just by starting today
5 minutes away
You know I went
All around the world
To find it right at my door
5 minutes away, 5 minutes
And go climbing up the rigging like his daddy used to do"
Oh come all of you fair maidens, a warning take by me
Never let a sailor lad an inch above
I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost,
For a life of sin, I have paid the cost.
When I pass by, all the people say
"Just another guy
Come and listen for a moment, lads
And hear me tell my tale
How across the sea from England
I was condemned to sail
Now the jury found me guilty
highway
I was just a lad nearly twenty two neither good nor bad just a kid like you
And now I'm lost too late to pray Lord I've paid the cost
at expectorating, ptooey!
Ten points for Gaston!
When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown, I eat five
The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow and so am I
Workday passes like molasses in wintertime, but it's July
I'm gettin' paid by
the traffic down at 5th and Main?
(Sweet Georgia, Georgia Brown)
Who drives all the young lads insane?
(Sweet Georgia, Georgia Brown)
I ain't gonna leave
gonna roll your way
Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and you
Come and listen for a moment, lads
And hear me tell my tale
How across the sea from England
I was condemned to sail
Now the jury found me guilty
You look so disbelievin'
At my suitcase by the door
My taxi's on its way
I can't take it anymore
Maybe you've forgotten
What lovin' me's
or at preachin', nae wooin', nae fleecin',
The flowers of the forest are a' wede away.
5. Dool for the order sent our lads to the Border,
the English for
- Oh my God, stand by
- No, I said the wrong word
- Baby, it don't even matter, ha ha eight-two
Oh, I mean, um, eight-five
Oh, eight-five oh-two-one,
There was a wayward lad
Stepped out one morning
The ground to be his bed
The sky his awning
Neon, neon, neon
A blue neon lamp in a midnight
so rapidly,
Well, he said "Oh my, it's do or die, I've got to learn that auction cry,
Gonna make my mark and be an auctioneer."
Twenty-five dollar
You look so disbelievin' at my suitcase by the door
And my taxi's on its way here, I can't take it anymore
Well, lately you forgotten what lovin'
an Irish lad,
And he was my only joy,
And ever since I saw his face
I've loved that soldier boy."
Well perhaps your soldier lad is lost
Sailing
Two through the window and two through the door
In came the animals five by five
Five little sparrows, doin' the jive
Who built the ark? Noah, Noah
Who
Sometimes at the end of the day
Before I head home, I make a stop along the way
A couple of drinks, wait for the 5 o'clock rush to go by
And almost
The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow and so am I
Workday passes like molasses in wintertime, but it's July
I'm gettin' paid by
An explosion on the lower deck, would take the souls of five,
With a growing superstition 'mong the sailors still alive.
The captain and his boy are lost
gonna roll your way
Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and you
