If anyone has the true provenance of this song we [Yorkshire garland] would like to know!!

Dave Burland and Robin Garside sing this I believe and can also be found on yorkshirefolksong.net

The song was widespread in Barnsley and was followed by; "You can't put yer muck in our dustbins, our dustbins, our dustbins (R)
'Ar dustbins full! Usually on charabanc trips from the local Working men's club trip to Cleethorpes or other seaside place, from industrial northern towns
