lirik lagu barnbrack - when i was a lad
rows of back to back houses, covered in smoke and grime
children skipping in the street, and washing on the line
a scarf tucked down your jersey, to keep you from the cold
i wore a woolly balaclava when i was nine years old
when i was a lad, neighbours were neighbours
when i was a lad, doing you favours
people giving people a hand, no matter how small
when i was a lad, dolly mixtures
when i was a lad, sat~rday pictures
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
school from monday to friday, i learned to read and write
grandad sitting on the doorstep in the fading light
tin bath hanging from a six~inch nail, lino on the floor
lavatory out in the back~yard, sit with your foot against the door
chorus
rows of back to back houses, covered in smoke and grime
children skipping in the street, and washing on the line
a scarf tucked down your jersey, to keep you from the cold
i wore a woolly balaclava when i was nine years old
when i was a lad, neighbours were neighbours
when i was a lad, doing you favours
people giving people a hand, no matter how small
when i was a lad, dolly mixtures
when i was a lad, sat~rday pictures
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
school from monday to friday, i learned to read and write
grandad sitting on the doorstep in the fading light
tin bath hanging from a six~inch nail, lino on the floor
lavatory out in the back~yard, sit with your foot against the door
when i was a lad, neighbours were neighbours
when i was a lad, doing you favours
people giving people a hand, no matter how small
when i was a lad, dolly mixtures
when i was a lad, sat~rday pictures
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
times were hard in winter, but mother kept us fed
all night huddled round the fireside, overcoats on the bed
we were a great big family, we all slept head to toe
in a big brass bed up in the backroom, and it seems so long ago
when i was a lad, neighbours were neighbours
when i was a lad, doing you favours
people giving people a hand, no matter how small
when i was a lad, dolly mixtures
when i was a lad, sat~rday pictures
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
when i was a lad, neighbours were neighbours
when i was a lad, doing you favours
people giving people a hand, no matter how small
when i was a lad, dolly mixtures
when i was a lad, sat~rday pictures
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
when i was a lad, those were the greatest days of all
