Jarrow Song Lyrics

My name is Geordie McIntyre.
And the bairns don't even have a fire.
So the wife said 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.
Come on you Geordie boys
they fill your heart with joy.
They're marching for their freedom now.
Come on follow the Jarra lads
they make your heart feel glad.
They 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 said Geordie go to London town.
And if they won't give us a couple of bob.
Won't even give you a decent job.
Then Geordie with my blessings burn them down.
Come on you Geordie boys
they fill your heart with joy.
They're marching for their freedom now.
Come on follow the Jarra lads
they make your heart feel glad.
They singing now yes now is the hour.
I can see them, I can feel them, I can hear them.
As if they were here today.

I can see them, I can feel them, I can hear them.
As if they were here today.

Come on, boys, come on, hear the call now.
Come on, boys come on, hear the call now.
