Thread Name: Lyr Req: Blow the Man Down (Phil Beer)
Subject: Lyr Req: Phil Beer's Blow the Man Down
I'd like to get the text of Blow the Man Down as sung by Phil Beer, a Cornish version, the booklet says (it is in this years' Folk Awards).
The first verse:
As I was a-walking down Killigrew Street Way, Hey – Blow the Man Down A saucy young bobby I chanced for to met Gi' me some time to Blow the Man Down
Blow the Man Down, bullies, Blow the Man Down Way, Hey – Blow the Man Down Blow him away, boys, to Liverpool town Gi' me some time to Blow the Man Down
