I swear down Blaydon Races is sung so fast these days that there’s a sonic boom just before the 2nd verse 

 

 

 


Doesn’t help that nobody knows the words or just sings Scotswood Road in the first and second part. It’s awful.

Don't know why  "Sunderland will never die they've never lived that's the reason why" to the red flag tune is not sung at Derby matches

Reet then lads & lasses, have been up all night with the ghosts of John Lennon and Rob from Milli Vanilli and we’ve come up with a BANGA 

 

We pass him the ball

He shoots

And then he scores a goal

Oh this is high time for Alexander Isaaaaaaak

 

This time next year I’ll be turning my Brit award into a beer pump, make my words

Good deed for the day (and please, if you ever get that far, sing ‘Dr Gibbs’ not Dr Gibbs’s—latter and subsequent ‘ribs’s’ sounds fucking ridiculous). 
 

I went to Blaydon Races, 'twas on the ninth of June,
Eighteen hundred an' sixty-two, on a summer's afternoon;
We took the 'bus from Balmbras, she was heavy laden,
An’ away we went along Collingwood Street, that's on the road to Blaydon.

Chorus:
Oh me lads! You should’ve seen us ganning,
Passing the folks alang the road just as they were standin';
Aal the lads and lasses there, aal wi' smiling faces,
Gannin' alang the Scotswood Road, to see the Blaydon Races!

We flew past Armstrong’s factory,  up to the Robin Adair, [famous pub on Scotchy Rd]
Just gannin' doon to the railway bridge, the bus wheel flew off there.
The lasses lost their crinolines [hooped petticoat worn under long Victorian skirts], an' the veils that hide their faces,
I got two black eyes an' a broken nose ganning to Blaydon Races!
(chorus)
We got the wheel back on an’ away we went again,
‘Cept some that had their noses broke went back ower hyem;
Some to the Dispensary and some to Doctor Gibbs,
An' some sought out the Infirmary to mend their broken ribs.
(chorus)
Noo when we got to Paradise [small village along the Tyne—still a bus stop there] a bonny game begun;
There were fower-an-twenty on the bus, man, hoo we danced an' sung;
They called on me to sing a song, I sung them "Paddy Fagan",
I danced a jig an' I swung me twig the day I went to Blaydon!
(chorus)
We flew across the Chain Bridge reet into Blaydon toon,
The bellman he was callin' there, they call him Jackie Broon;
I saw him talkin' to sum chaps, an' them he was persuading,
To gan an' see Geordie Ridley's show,  at the Mechanics' Hall at Blaydon.
(chorus)
The rain had poured aal the day, an'  the grounds they were quite muddy,
Coffee Johnny had a white hat on – they were shootin' "Whi stole the cuddy?” 
There were spice stalls, an' monkey shows, an' old wives selling cider,
An' a chap with a hapenny roond aboot, shooting: “Noo me boys for riders!"
(chorus)

George (Geordie) Ridley (10.2.1807-9.9.1864, both Gateshead)

Spoiler

Geordie Ridley a, ahem, dear friend and contemporary of mine, was a canny Gateshead lad. He worked down the pit from 8-18 until he saw sense and moved on to be  waggon rider. Well, this good sense perhaps wasn’t as wise, at least in the short-term, as it seemed. By 21 he was retired and unfit for manual labour following being ridden ower by something he was supposed to be riding. Dafty. 
Anyhoo, he needed to find a way of putting bread on the table and ale doon his gullet. So he took the bold step of turning his interest, and self taught skills for poetry and song writing, into a new career. He banged out some classics in a short 5 year spell in the spotlight. Cushie Butterfield, Joey Jones, The Sheels lass for me, Johnny Luik up (he frigging loved me like…) and the obvious, amongst his most loved classics. He had a little spell as a publican towards the end, anarl, though it wasn’t an easy gig down by the quayside in those days.
