lyrics

RANTING LADS

Here come the ranting lads
Three cheers for the ranting lads

Here come the ranting lads
Bringing those times back here again
Ranting happy or ranting sad
We'll bring those times back here again
Will those times come back here again?

Young at heart with bodies old
Bringing those times back here again
But memories of the purest gold
We'll bring those times back here again
Will those times come back here again?

Here come the ranting lads
They've got the whole world in their hands
Happy as the collier lads
The canny ranting lads
Ranting by the light of the moon
The ranting lads will come too soon
Bugger me I'm on the town
All night with the ranting lads

Here come the ranting lads
Three cheers for the ranting lads

Life goes on though dreams pass by
Bringing those times back here again
So raise a smile through tear-drenched eyes
We'll bring those times back here again
Will those times come back here again?

Set them up for one last round
Bringing those times back here again
For all we've lost and all we've found
We'll bring those times back here again
Will those times come back here again?

Here come the ranting lads
They've got the whole world in their hands
Happy as the collier lads
The canny ranting lads
Ranting by the light of the moon
The ranting lads will come too soon
Bugger me I'm on the town
All night with the ranting lads

Here come the ranting lads
Three cheers for the ranting lads

(Gary Miller)
