Blaydon Races - Thomas Allen/Johnny Handle[00:00:00]

I went to blaydon races[00:00:14]

'Twas on the ninth of june[00:00:16]

Eighteen hundred and sixty two[00:00:17]

On a summer's afternoon[00:00:19]

I took the bus from balmbras[00:00:21]

And she was heavy laden[00:00:23]

Away we went along collingwood street[00:00:25]

That's on the road to blaydon[00:00:26]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:00:28]

Passing the folks along the road[00:00:32]

Just say they were starin'[00:00:34]

All the lads and lasses there[00:00:35]

They all had smiling faces[00:00:37]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:00:39]

To see the blaydon races[00:00:42]

We flew past armstrong's factory[00:00:47]

And up by the robin adair[00:00:49]

But ganning ower the railway bridge[00:00:51]

The bus wheel flew off there[00:00:52]

The lasses lost their crinolenes[00:00:55]

And veils that hide their faces[00:00:57]

I got two black eyes and a broken nose[00:00:59]

In ganning to blaydon races[00:01:01]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:01:03]

Passing the folks along the road[00:01:06]

Just say they were starin'[00:01:08]

All the lads and lasses there[00:01:10]

They all had smiling faces[00:01:12]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:01:14]

To see the blaydon races[00:01:16]

When we got the wheel back on[00:01:22]

Away we went again[00:01:24]

But them that had their noses broke[00:01:25]

They came back ower hyem[00:01:27]

Some went to the dispensary[00:01:29]

And some to doctor gibbses[00:01:31]

And some to the infirmary[00:01:33]

To mend their broken ribses[00:01:34]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:01:36]

Passing the folks along the road[00:01:40]

Just say they were starin'[00:01:42]

All the lads and lasses there[00:01:44]

They all had smiling faces[00:01:45]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:01:47]

To see the blaydon races[00:01:50]

Now when we got to paradise[00:01:55]

There were bonny games begun[00:01:57]

There were four and twenty on the bus[00:01:59]

And how we danced and sung[00:02:01]

They called on me to sing a song[00:02:02]

So I sang 'em 'paddy fagan'[00:02:04]

I danced a jig and I swung me twig[00:02:06]

The day I went to blaydon[00:02:08]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:02:10]

Passing the folks along the road[00:02:13]

Just say they were starin'[00:02:15]

All the lads and lasses there[00:02:17]

They all had smiling faces[00:02:19]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:02:20]

To see the blaydon races[00:02:23]

We flew across the tyne bridge[00:02:29]

Bring it to blaydon toon[00:02:31]

The barman he was calling then[00:02:32]

They called him jackie broon[00:02:34]

I saw him talking to some chaps[00:02:36]

And them he was persuadin'[00:02:38]

To gan and see geordie ridley's show[00:02:39]

At the mechanics' hall in blaydon[00:02:41]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:02:43]

Passing the folks along the road[00:02:47]

Just say they were starin'[00:02:48]

All the lads and lasses there[00:02:50]

They all had smiling faces[00:02:52]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:02:54]

To see the blaydon races[00:02:56]

The rain it poured down all the day[00:03:02]

And made the ground quite muddy[00:03:04]

Coffee johnny had a white hat on[00:03:06]

Shouted 'wee stole the cuddy '[00:03:07]

There were spice stalls and monkey shows[00:03:09]

And old wives selling ciders[00:03:11]

And the chap on the ha'penny roundabout[00:03:13]

Saying 'any more lads for riders '[00:03:14]

Oh lads you should've seen us ganning[00:03:16]

Passing the folks along the road[00:03:20]

Just say they were starin'[00:03:22]

All the lads and lasses there[00:03:23]

They all had smiling faces[00:03:25]

Ganning along the scotswood road[00:03:27]

To see the blaydon races[00:03:31]
