[Verse 1]
If I had another penny
I would have another gill
I would make the piper play
"The Bonny Lass of Byker Hill"

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more

[Verse 2]
The pit man and the keel man trim
They drink bumble made from gin
Then to dance they all begin
To the tune of the Elsie Marley

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more

[Verse 3]
First I went down to the dirt
I had no cowl nor pit shirt
Now I've gotten two or three
Walker Pit's done well by me
[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more

[Verse 4]
All the boys from Walker Shore
Drink half a pint then eighteen more
All the way they rant and roar
To the tune of the Elsie Marley

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more

[Verse 5]
Geordie Charlton had a pig
He hit it with a shovel and it danced a jig
All the way to Walker Shore
To the tune of the Elsie Marley

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
[Verse 1]
If I had another penny
I would have another gill
I would make the piper play
"The Bonny Lass of Byker Hill"

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more

[Chorus]
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
Byker Hill and Walker Shore
Collier lads forever more
