The Blaydon Races - The Spinners
Aa went to Blaydon Races
It was on the ninth of June
Eighteen hundred and sixty
Two on a summer's efternoon
Aa tyuk the bus fra Balmbra's
And she was heavy laden
Away we went alang Collingwood
Street that's on the road to Blaydon
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon Races
We flew past Armstrong's factory
An' up to the Robin Adair
Just gannin' doon te the railway
Bridge the bus wheel flew off there
The lasses lost thor crinolines
An' the vails that hide thor faces
Aa got two black eyes an' a broken nose
I' ga'n te Blaydon Races
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon races
When we gat the wheel put on away
We went agyen
But them that had thor noses
Broke they cam' back ower hyem
Sum went to the dispensary
An sum to Dr Gibb's
An sum to the Informary to mend
Thor broken ribs
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon races
Noo when we gat te Paradise
Thor wes bonny gam begun
Thor wes fower an'twenty on the bus
Man how they danced an' sung
They caalled on me te sing a song
Aa sang them Paddy Fagan
Aa danced a jig an' swung me twig that day
Aa went te Blaydon
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon races
We flew across the Chine bridge
Reet inti' Blaydon Toon
The bellman he wes caallin' there
They caalled him jacky Broon
Aa saa him taakin' te sum cheps
An' them he wes persuadin'
Te gan an' see Geordie Ridley's
Show in the Mechanic's Haall at Blaydon
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon races
The rain it poored aall the day
An' myed the groonds quite muddy
Coffee Johnny had a white hat
On they yelled Whe stole the cuddy
Thor wes spice staalls an'
Munkey shows an aad wives sellin' ciders
An' a chep wi' a ha'penny roondeboot
Shootin' noo me lads for riders
Oh lads ye shud a' seen us gannin'
Passin' the folks upon the road
Just as they were stannin'
Thor wis lots o lads and lasses
There aall wi smilin' faces
Gannin alang the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon races
