[Verse 1]
Now [C]some [G]will say the weaver's best
But [C]I w[G]ould not say so
If it weren't for us [D]poor [G]labouring [F]men
Watch what those [C]wheelers [G]do
We buys up all the road dogs and [F]hens
And so the [G]game [C]comes in[G]
For there's [C]never [G]a trade in all
England
Life [C]we [G]for laboring men
And [C]some [G]do say the blacksmith's best
But I do not say so
If it weren't for [D]us poor [G]laboring [F]men
[Dm]What would [F]those [G]blacksmith[C] s do[G]?
She wears out [D]all her old [G]cutters and [F]shears,
[Dm]and [F]so the g[G]ame [C]comes [G]in.
Oh, there's never a trade on
England like [C]we are, [G]they bring fair.
And [C]some [G]do say that
Taylor's best, but [C]I w[G]ould not say so
If it weren't for us, [D]for [G]labouring [F]men,
what would those
[C]Taylors [G]do?
That we're out [D]of our old [G]bridges,
[F]and[Dm] so t[F]he gam[C]e comes in[G]
For there's [C]never [G]a train on
England lying [C]free [G]for a labouring man

[Verse 2]
And now [C]some [G]do say the
shoemaker's best,
[C]But I [G]would not [F]say [G]so.
If it weren't for us [D]poor [G]labouring [Dm]men,
[F]What would those [G]shoemakers do?
They'd wear out all their
old boots [F]and shoes,
[Dm]An d s[F]o the tr[G]ade comes in.
For there's [C]never [G]a trade in all
England
Like [C]we [G]for labour[F]ing [G]men
And [C]some [G]do say the bakers best
But [C]I w[G]ould not say so
If it weren't for us [D]poor [G]labouring [F]men
[Dm]What [F]would [G]those [C]baker[G] s [C]do?[G]
We'd buy up all [D]their [G]old stale [Dm]bread
Until [F]their [G]trade comes in
For there's never a trade in all
England
By
[C]Greek or
[G]Laboury men
And [C]some [G]do say they're brewers best
But [C]I will n[G]ot say s[F]o[G]
If it weren't for us [D]poor [G]laboring [F]men,
what would those [G]brewer[C]s do?[G]
We buys up all the [D]oats [G]for pernipi[F]a,
and so the [G]gain [C]comes [G]in
And there's nev[C]er a [G]trade in all
England, like [C]we poor [G]laboring men
[C][G][D][C][G][D][G][F][C][G][D][G]
[F]And so the [G]game comes in,
for there's never a trade
In all
England, like [C]we, for [G]labour[F] ing me[G]n.
