Collier zijn mijnwerkers. Collier lads zijn jongens die in de mijnen werken.
If I had another penny I would have another gill I would make the piper play 'The Bonny Lass of Byker Hill' Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more The pitman and the keelman trim They drink bumble made from gin Then to dance they all begin To the tune of the Elsie Marley Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more When first I went down to the dirt I had no cowl nor pitshirt Now I've gotten two or three Walker Pit's done well by me Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more All the boys from Walker Shore Drink half a pint then eighteen more All the way they rant and roar To the tune of the Elsie Marley Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Geordie Charlton had a pig He hit it with a shovel and it danced a jig All the way to Walker Shore To the tune of the Elsie Marley If I had another penny I would have another gill I would make the piper play 'The Bonny Lass of Byker Hill' Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more Byker Hill and Walker Shore Collier lads for ever more
