SKIPPING SONG OF THE 1840's
Limavady has a workhouse, a workhouse, a workhouse
Limavady has a workhouse
Nobody wants to go in
Don't go into the workhouse, the workhouse, the workhouse
Don't go into the workhouse
You'll never get out again
Life is hard in the workhouse, the workhouse, the workhouse
Life is hard in the workhouse
You work from dawn to ten
Nothing to eat but Peel's Brinstone, Brinstone, Brinstone
Nothing to eat but Peel's Brinstone
For breakfast, dinner and tea
Limavady has a workhouse, a workhouse, a workhouse
Limavady has a workhouse
Nobody wants to go in
from here.
