[kj] Geordie - one song

[folk devil]

Come here, maw little Jacky,Now aw've smoked mi backy,Let's hev a bit o' cracky,Till the boat comes in.ChorusDance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;Thou shall hev a fishy on a little dishy,Thou shall hev a fishy when the boat comes in.Here's thy mother humming,Like a canny woman;Yonder comes thy father,Drunk - he cannot stand.ChorusDance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;Thou shall hev a fishy on a little dishy,Thou shall hev a haddock when the boat comes in.Our Tommy's always fuddling,He's so fond of ale,But he's kind to me,I hope he'll never fail.ChorusDance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;Thou shall hev a fishy on a little dishy,Thou shall hev a bloater when the boat comes in.I like a drop mysel',When I can get it sly,And thou, my bonny bairn,Will lik't as well as I.ChorusDance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;Thou shall hev a fishy on a little dishy,Thou shall hev a mackerel when the boat comes in.May we get a drop,Oft as we stand in need;And weel may the keel rowThat brings the bairns their bread.ChorusDance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;Thou shall hev a fishy on a little dishy,Thou shall hev a salmon when the boat comes in.
