The Lambton Worm (C.M. Leumane, 1867) arranged and performed by Geordie Wilson

Geordie Wilson performs a traditional song from North East England. Here's the lyrics: The Lambton Worm Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs, Aa'll tell yiz aall and aaful story, Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs, Aal tell ye 'boot the worm. One Sunday morn young Lambton Went a-fishin' in the Wear; He catched a fish upon his huek, He thowt it aafuly queer, But wharra kind a fish it was Young Lambton couldn't tell. He waddn't fash to carry it hyem, So he hoyed it doon the well. Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs... Noo Lambton he's inclined te gan An' fight in foreign wars He joins a troop of Knights that cares For neither wounds nor scars nor scars So off he goes to Palestine Where queer things him befell, An he varry seun forget all aboot That funny worm doon the well Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs... Whei, the worm he grewed an' grewed an' grewed He grew tiv an aaful size; With a geet big heed, a geet big gob, An' geet big goggley eyes. An' when at neet he craaled aboot To pick up bits o'news, If he felt dry upon the road, He milked a dozen coos Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs... Noo the worm he'd often gan an' feed On calves an' lambs an' sheep, He'd swally little bairns alive As they lay doon to sleep. An' when he'd eaten aal he cud An' he had has he's fill, Away he went an' lapped his tail Ten times roond Pensher Hill Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs... Whei, the news of this most aaful worm An' his queer gannins on Seun crossed the seas, an' got t' the lugs Of bold and brave Sir John. So back he comes from Palestine And cuts 'it in three halves, An' that puts paid to eatin' all them bairns and sheeps and calves Whisht! lads, haad yor gobs... Why noo ye knaa hoo aall the folks On byeth sides of the Wear Lost lots o' sheep an' lots o' sleep An' lived in mortal feor. So let's hev one to brave Sir John He kept the bairns from harm Saved coos an' calves by myekin' haalves O' the famis Lambton Worm Wisht! lads, Aa'll haad me gob, I've telt yiz aal an aaful story Of Sir John's clivvor job An' the aaful Lambton Worm!
