Thread Name: Lyr Req: I Am an English Navvy
Subject: Lyr Req: I am an English Navvy
I am looking for a complete set of the words to a temperance song published in the 'Quarterly Letter to Navvies' about 1885. The chorus starts "Yes, I am an English Navvy; but, oh, not an English sot". The chorus is referred to by several authors and repeated on many websites but I can't find a full set of words. Can anybody help ?
