The Jarrow Song (Video)

My name is Geordie McIntyre
And the Bairns don't even have a fire 
So the wife says, Geordie, go to London Town! 
And if they don't give us half a chance, 
don't even give us a second glance, 
then Geordie, with my blessings, burn them down! 

(Chorus:)
Come on follow the Geordie boys
They'll fill your heart with joy 
They're marching for their freedom now 
Come on follow the Jarrow lads
They'll make your heart feel glad 
They're singing now, yes now is the hour! 

My name is little Billy White, 
and I know what's wrong and I know what's right 
And the wife says, Geordie, go to London Town! 
And if they don't give us a couple of bob, 
won't even give you a decent job, 
then Geordie, with my blessings, burn them down! 

Chorus

|: Well I can hear them and I can feel them 
And it's as just as if they were here today 
I can see them, I can feel them 
And I'm thinking, nothing's changed much today. 

Not all came here to stay their way and die 
But they would come and hit you in the eye 
Now's the time to realize that time goes on, 
[and] nothing changes, changes, changes :|  

My name is little Alan Price
I tried to be nice all of my life 
But I'm afraid that up to date it doesn't work 
Because when you lay some money down, 
the people try to put you down 
Now where do I stand, either side or not? 

Come on follow this Geordie boy
He'll try and fill your heart with joy 
We're marching for our freedom now 
Come on follow this Jarrow lad
He'll try and make your heart feel glad 
We're saying it now, yes now is the hour!
