The Dole Song Lyrics & Chords By Alan Price

My name is Geordie Mc
Intyre, An' 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 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 An' the wife says "Geordie, go to London Town!" An' 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 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, The joy'll make your heart feel glad They're singing now, yes now is the hour Well I can hear them an' I can feel them An' it's as just as if they were here today I can see them, I can feel them An' 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 Nothin' changes, changes, changes Now I can feel them, I can see them An' it's as just as if they were here today I can feel them and I need them An' I'm thinking nothing's changed much today Not all that people 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 nothin' 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 sayin' it now, yes now is the hour
