Aa'm Glad The Strike's Done chords by The High Level Ranters
Verse 1
G
D
A
D
Oh, was glad the strikes
A
done shooted along
Geordie
Reed
D
To the group that was standing a -roam
A
D
For the care and anxiety's
A
now torn me heed
D
And I was getting as thin as a home
A
For an army in
D
Jenny had promised to wed
When the money to start -house was won
A
Em
But the unlucky stock
G
D
caused more spirits to drop
So
A
D
A
D
I's glad, very glad the strike's done
I's glad the strike's done,
A
said a half -grown lad
D
For the brasset was getting so short
And the bowlin' and the runnin'
A
was gone to the bard,
D
And we'd nigh seen the finish to sport.
To
A
D
Newcastle races, some merry and blight,
A
Well yet start like a shot of a gun.
G
And it's near now well late
D
to back one for the plate,
So
I's glad, I'm very glad
A
D
A
the strike's done.
D
I was glad the strike's done
A
for the sake of my wife
Says the brave little chap for the crowd
D
For the pinchin' and
A
plannin' and sorrow
and strife
D
Nearly had the poor lass in a shroud
A
Now cannae bid
D
Benzel look tidy and trim
A
When the chapel unsunders that yule
G
And how thankful, says he,
D
everybody should be
A
D
A
D
That the unlucky strike is now done
Was glad the strike's done, cried out
A
Shockey
Paddjoe
D
And his words expressed all that he said
A
For his face wore a smile and his lips give
a smack
D
As he talked to the prospects of trade
A
Oh, the business,
D
what thrivers it did once before,
A
In the wheels of prosperity run.
G
Aye, and I'll get me whack,
D
see a shop keep a jack,
So
A
I's glad, I'm very glad the
D
A
D
strike's done.
Then the crowd all agreed with
A
the nod of the heed,
Though I pleased the bad
D
job was put straight,
A
In a woman or two was the crowd
that passed through,
Give full vent to the happy delight.
D
A
While the bands in the street
D
were their voices so sweet,
A
In the height of the glory and fun.
G
Shoot it hip -hip -hooray,
D
way it settled the day,
And we're glad,
A
D
very glad the strike's done.
