"Oh, I am an old navvy and I work on the line[00:00:00]

And the last place I worked was Newcastle-on-Tyne[00:00:06]

Well, I'll tell me misfortune it happened in fun[00:00:08]

Oh, it happened one night I'd me navvy boots on[00:00:14]

One night after supper I shaved off me beard[00:00:21]

For to meet me fair Ellen I was well prepared[00:00:26]

For to meet me fair Ellen I then hurried down[00:00:31]

And I met her that night with me navvy boots on[00:00:35]

I knocked on her window, my knock it was low[00:00:41]

I knocked on her window, my knock she did know[00:00:46]

She jumped out of bed saying: Is that you John?[00:00:51]

Ah, bejaybers it's me with me navvy boots on[00:00:55]

She came to the door and invited me in[00:01:00]

Saying: draw to the fire, love, and warm me your skin[00:01:04]

Well the bedroom was open and the blankets rolled down[00:01:09]

So I jumped into bed with me navvy boots on[00:01:15]

And all of that night now we sported and played[00:01:19]

Never thinking of time as it soon passed away[00:01:22]

Then she jumped out of bed crying: What have I done?[00:01:29]

Ah, the baby will be born with his navvy boots on[00:01:34]

I chastised me loved one for talking so wild[00:01:39]

Ah, you foolish young girl, you'll never have a child[00:01:43]

Ah, for all that I've done now twas only in fun[00:01:48]

Ah, but I ran like hell with me navvy boots on[00:01:51]

And very soon after I was summoned to court[00:01:58]

To pay for me sins just like any man ought[00:02:03]

I pay ten bob a week now for all of my fun[00:02:08]

Ah, that I had that night with me navvy boots on[00:02:13]
