Jarrow Song Alan Price
My name is Geordie McIntyre, An the Bairns don t even have a fire So the wife says Geordie, go to London Town And if they don t give us half a chance, Don t even give us a second glance Then Geordie, with my blessings, burn them down. Come on follow the Geordie boys, They ll fill your heart with joy They re marching for their freedom now Come on follow the Jarrow lads, They ll make your heart feel glad They re singing now, yes now is the hour. My name is little Billy White, And I know what s wrong and I know what s right An the wife says Geordie, go to London Town An if they don t give us a couple of bob, Won t even give you a decent job Then Geordie, with my blessings, burn them down. Come on follow the Geordie boys, They ll fill your heart with joy They re marching for their freedom now Come on follow the Jarrow lads, The joy ll make you
