The song "Manura Manyah" written by Matt McGinn
I've heard men complain
O' the job that they're da'in',
While howkin' the coal
Or diggin'a drain;
But whoever they are
There is nane to compare
Wi' a man that is shovellin'
Manura Manyah.
CHORUS:
Wi manura manyah, wi' manura manyah,
Wi' manura, manura, manura manyah.
Oh, the streets o' the toon
Were all covered aroon
Wi' stuff that is lovely
An' golden and broon.
It was put there, of course
By a big Clydesdale horse
An' its name was manura, manura manyah.
CHORUS:
I followed its track
Wi' a shovel an' sack
And as often as not
Wi' a pain in my back.
It was all for the rent
An' the beautiful scent
O' manura, manura, manura manyah.
CHORUS:
But I'm feelin' so sore
For my job's been took o'er
An' everything now is mechanical po'er
An' there's nowt left for me
But the sweet memory
O' manura, manura, manura manyah.
CHORUS:
O' manura, manura, manura manyah.
CHORUS:
thanks for this!
Wonderful :)
Immense !!
