here is the song

Blind Willie V. Billy Scott, 1829, Thomas Marshall, 1806-1866, Tune—Fie, let's away to the Bridal
BLIND WILLIE, one morning, was singin'
At the sign o' the "Bunch o' Grapes,"
Te amuse the folks he was beginnin'
Wi' aud Sir Matthew's mistakes.
Sumbody shoots, "Here's Mister Scott cummin!"
Willie instantly wished for te see;
"Aw'll tell ye the truth, withoot funnin,
He once half-a-croon gav te me!"
Fal lal, etc.

Willie now thowt they were gamin,
For Mister Scott's cummin seem'd lang,
Till he heard a voice gravely exclaimin,
"Poor William !—poor blind man!"
Willie bawls oot—" Ye canna deceive me !—
Ye needn't think aw'm se silly;
Aw's not such a feul, ye'll believe me,—
It's not Mister Scott, but Cull Billy!"
Fal lal, etc.

"Blind man, come, don't be so mulish,
If I'm silly, no doubt I'm not right;
You for to say that I'm foolish!
Thank God! I'm endued with my sight! "
But, Cull Billy, what browt ye here now?
Nebody can say that it's reet.
Gan away, or aw'll blind ye wi' beer now,
For cummin te myek gam o' maw seet!"
Fal lal, etc.

"You stand on a groundless foundation,
What else can such as you think?
You indulge yourself in dissipation,
You are both blind and stupid with drink
Willie sat an' heard Cull Billy pratting,
Quite heedless tiv a' the abuse:
His hand on his knee he kept clapping—
"Cull Billy's cum fra the madhoose!"
Fal lal, etc.

Billy now turned quite ootrageous,
At Blind Willie's nose tuik a grip:
His haud he suin disengages,
For Willie began hard te kick.
Willie still gav him greet provocation,
His raillery still wadn't cease;
Billy went oot wiv a vile execration,
Te gan tiv a justice for peace.
Fal lal, etc

Willie fand hissel reythur twisted,
His nose was beginnin te bleed;
He wad gan te the Mayor, he insisted,
And let his reet worshipful see'd.
Willie oft loodly did grummel—
"The divil brust Cull Billy's bags:
When the aud wife let the pie tummel,
He sat doon an' dined on the flags!"
Fal lal, etc.

Willie tuik a consideration,
He thowt the subject shud drop;
He allowed he'd gi'en provocation,
But further mischief he wad stop.
Te finish the pack, anuther gill he got,
But with an oath he did declare,
The varry first time he saw Billy Scott,
He wad take him before Mister Mayor.
Fal lal, etc.

The song forms part of a 24 page song book, published in 1829, that appears to be the only known work of Thomas Marshall. Marshall was born in Newcastle and served his apprenticeship as a brush-maker in Pilgrim Street. At the age of 21 this collection of his songs was published by William Fordyce of Dean Street, two of the songs, 'Euphy's coronation' and 'Blind Willie' going on to enjoy relative popularity for a number of years following. It is not clear if Marshall ceased composing after this, or simply if none of his other work has survived - certainly Thomas Allan in his 1891 edition of 'Allan's Tyneside songs' noted that 'if he wrote anything after this it is untraced, as nothing appears to have found its way into local collections'. Thomas Marshall died on 29th December, 1866 at his house in Shieldfield, Tyneside.-farne archive
