Peter,
Not sure the world (or the list) is quite ready for this. Not in the
'Bairnie's cuddle doon' league and fallible memory again, there not being
huge demand for Tyneside music hall (if that's what it was) in these parts:
Wor Geordie an Bob Johnson byeth lay i' one bed
In a little lodgin' hoose doon by the shore
When afore ee'd been an oor asleep a kick from Geordie's foot
Made him waken up to roar instead of snore
Keep ya feet still Geordie hinnie let's be happy for the neet
Thaw we may not be so happy through the day
So give us that bit comfort keep ya feet still Geordie lad
Ay an divvent drive me bonny dreams away
A dreamt Bill Broon hed left the toon an left his love to me
An I dremt the hoose was fornished wi the best
An I dremt that I hed left the chorch wi' Mary by my side
When ya clumsy feet completely spoilt the rest
(Chorus)
Ye knaa the led she gans with the caal him Jimmie Green
............................................................................
......................
an ah dremt ah nailed im heavy an a blacked the big feul's eye
if ad slept it's hard to say what i'd hev done
(it goes on but mercifully for all concerned i can't remember any more. Tom
could correct a Wearsider's faulty transcription)
