Awm a rooamin, rollickin, Yorksher lad, Aw tak things as they come; An' tho' mi bargains turn aght bad, Yo'll nivver find me glum. Aw've joys 'at they ne'er know owt on, An' when they think me sad, Awm ommost fit to split wi' fun, For awm a Yorksher lad."

Awm a rooamin, rollickin, Yorksher lad,
Aw tak things as they come;
An' tho' mi bargains turn aght bad,
Yo'll nivver find me glum.
Aw've joys 'at they ne'er know owt on,
An' when they think me sad,
Awm ommost fit to split wi' fun,
For awm a Yorksher lad."
