[Intro, spoken]
(This is a great song
It's called "Geordie's Lost His Penker"
Now, penker is a marble
This is from what I am told at least by a friend of mine
Who taught me this who comes from Newcastle on the Tyne
"Ovah 'ere"
And uh, a penker is a marble
You will attest to that, will you not, sir?
Uh, there are other words in here
That are, I'll have to define as we go along
'Cause, uh, well, you'll see why
But just try with me a little bit
And uh, we'll just get into it
And it's just an a cappella song, you know
Just, with you and we will do it
That will be that)
[Verse 1]
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Doin' the double-wrought
(Doin' the double-wrought means, uh, down the double row
Like uh, you know like houses
Wanna try that doin' the double-wrought
Let's just say that once
Doin' the double-wrought
Good
Now, you just try with me a little bit)
[Verse 1]
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Oh, Geordie's lost his penker
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 2]
It ran right down the cundy
It ,,.
(Wait a minute now
That's a sewer
Uh, let's sing it now)
[Verse 2]
It ran right down the cundy
It ran right down the cundy
It ran right down the cundy
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 3]
So, he went and got a clathesprop
(Think that's something you hold your clothes on, right?
It's like a rail, you know, so
Like a [?] neck
Clathesprop, okay, here we go)
[Verse 3]
He went and got a clathesprop
He went and got a clathesprop
He went and got a clathesprop
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 4]
And he rammed it up the cundy
He rammed it up the cundy
He rammed it up the cundy
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 5]
But he couldn't fetch it
But he couldn't fetch it
But he couldn't fetch it
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 6]
So, he went got gunpowder
He went and got gunpowder
He went and got gun powder
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 7]
And he rammed it up the cundy
He rammed it up the cundy
He rammed it up the cundy
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 8]
Oh, Geordie's found his penker
Oh, Geordie's found his penker
Oh, Geordie's found his penker
Doin' the double-wrought
[Verse 9]
'Twas in his bloody pocket
*Laughter & applause*
'Twas in his bloody pocket
'Twas in his bloody pocket
Doin' the double-wrought
*Pop*
