navy boots on - liam clancy lyrics

navy boots on lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m a bold irish navvy who worked on the line
and the first place i worked was newcastle*on*tyne
but through a misfortune that happened in fun
i remember the night i’d me navvy boots on

[verse 2]
when the day’s work was over i shaved off me beard
to meet the young lady, i was well prepared
for to meet the young lady, i then hurried down
and i met her that night with me navvy boots on

[verse 3]
when i knocked on her window, my knock it was low
when i knocked on her window, my knock she did know
she jumped out of bed crying, “is that you john?”
“well, it even it is, love, with me navvy boots on”

[verse 4]
then she opened the door and invited me in
“come up to the fire, love, and warm your skin”
well, her room door being open and the blankets turned down
i jumped into bed with me navvy boots on

[verse 5]
it was all of that night we did sport and did play
never thinking of time as it soon passed away
then she leaped out of bed crying, “what have i done?
for the child will be born with his navvy boots on”
[verse 6]
i chastised me love so for talking so wild
“ya foolish young girl, you will never have a child”
for all that i, ditched her, ’twas only in fun
then i ran like h*ll with me navvy boots on

[verse 7]
it was very soon after i was summoned to court
to pay for me sins there as every man ought
i give ten bob a week now to pay for the fun
that i had that night with me navvy boots on
