If I had another penny I would have another gill I would make the piper play The bonny lass of Byker Hill Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore The pitman and the keelman trim They drink bumble made from gin Then to dance they do begin To the tune of "Elsie Marley" Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore When first I went down to the dirt I had no cowl nor no pit shirt Now I've gotten two or three Walker Pit's done well by me Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore Geordie Johnson 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 forevermore Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads forevermore
