Lyrics
If I had another penny,
I would have another gill.
I would make the piper play
the Bonnie Lass of Byker Hill.
Byker Hill and Walker Shore,
Collier lads forever more!
Byker Hill and Walker Shore,
Collier lads forever more!
The pitman and the keelman trim!
They drink bumble made from gin,
Then to dance they all begin,
To the tune of Elsie Marley.
Chorus
All the boys from Walker Shore
Drink half a pint, then eighteen more.
All the way they rant and roar
To the tune of Elsie Marley.
Chorus
Geordie Charlton, he had a pig!
He hit it with a shovel and it danced a jig
All the way to Walker Shore
To the tune of Elsie Marley.
Chorus
