CAN O TEA

by

Matt McGinn

 

The champagne flows, the wine glass glows

The shipyard gates will have tae close

They say it's a' because o me

And I cannae hae my can o tea

Dow-ri-adaday, my can o tea

 

For forty years and fourteen mair

The men that work wi Donald Blair

They’ve aye had a middle of the morning plan

They stop at ten to boil their can

 

And the champagne flows, the wine glass glows

The shipyard gates will have tae close

They say it's a' because o me

And I cannae hae my can o tea

Dow-ri-adaday, my can o  tea

 

But Donald he was awfully wise

Although he always closed his eyes

He never ever gave us leave

So he'd have a trump card up his sleeve

 

The champagne flows, the wine glass glows

The shipyard gates will have tae close

They say it's a' because o me

And I cannae hae my can o tea

Dow-ri-adaday, my can o tea

 

This morning Donald came to me

He pointed tae my can o tea

Then he let oot an awful roar

Says he, ‘Young man get oot that door’

 

Oh, the champagne flows, the wine glass glows

The shipyard gates will have tae close

They say it's a' because o me

And I cannae hae my can o tea

Dow-ri-adaday, my can o tea

 

But the men said I'd been victimised

For the union I had organised

So when I laid doon my can o tea

A thousand men marched oot wi me

 

The champagne flows, the wine glass glows

The shipyard gates will have tae close

They say it's a' because o me

And I cannae hae my can o tea

Dow-ri-adaday, my can o tea
