I work for the foundry for a penny and a half a day
C G C/G G
Like a blind street musician I never see those who pay
Am C
It's dirty work in Birmingham

Better deal for a Sheffield man
G Am
If he can rivet then his kids can buy
C C C C G
Candy from the candy man
F C
And the van that comes around weekends
F C
Selling fancy city things
F C
Sold by the man with the trilby hat
F C/E
And the whiskers spread like wings
Am7
You can hear him sing

Oh you can hear him sing
G G/A G/B C F/C
Can I put you on, people can I put you on
C G
Tell you that I love you people
F C G/B Am7 C C G
Sing a salesman's song and put you on
G G/F
And a second cousin works in the pits in Newcastle on Tyne
C G
And he don't care if it rains outside, there's coal dust on his mind
Am C
It's dirty work in Manchester
C C
But the crew gets paid its gelt
G Am
Bang on the bell on Friday

You buys a little something for yourself
F C
And the van that comes around weekends
(Chorus)

Oh! Oh! Oh! People can I put you on?
