Barnsley Birds
(Lyrics: Chris Sammon)

Well the Gawber Girls on Pitt Street
Neck their vodka darn in one
And the Darton Girls never hang ararnd
Just one kiss and then they’re gone
The Pogmoor Girls are teasers
They say they will but that I doubt
And the Thurnscoe lasses say they surely would
But their dads'd knock you art

I wish they could all be like the Barnsley
I wish they could all be like the Barnsley
I wish they could all be like the Barnsley Birds

The Brierley Birds have got big houses
They’ve got a bob or two
And the Hoyland Girls are a friendly bunch
‘cos there’s sod all else to do
I’ve been all rarnd the borough
And I’ve seen girls of all types
But a chat-up from a Darfield lass
I’m like a rat up a drainpipe

I wish they could all be like the Barnsley
I wish they could all be like the Barnsley
I wish they could all be like the Barnsley Birds

Birds, birds, birds, yeah I love the birds…
(I wish they all could be like the Barnsley Birds)
