If I had another penny
I would have another Jill
I would pay the piper play me
The bonny lass of Byker Hill
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
When first I came down to the dirt
I had no trousers, no pit shirt
Now I’ve gotten two or three
Oh, Walker Pit’s done well by me
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
The pitman and the keelman Trin
They drink bumbo make from gin
Then to dance they do begin
To the tune of Elsie Marley
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Geordie Tarlton 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
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Gentle Jenny she’s behind the barn
With a pint of ale underneath her arm
A pint of ale underneath her arm
And she feeds it to the baby
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
