Banjo-flower, here's the words I use (don't forget the accent)

EEE BY GUM

CHORUS: Eee by gum but I'm cowd, eee by gum but I'm cowd
Mi hands are like stone, mi feets like lead,
I 'ave n' bin a warm sin' I left mi bed,
I gets reet up t' fire, as near as I'm allowed,
That I might get gradely warm at last, ee by gum but I'm cowd.

Old Jonathan Pratt were a gradely chap, an' 'e liked a pint of ale
That's why 'is nose were allus red but 'is cheeks were allus pale
An' if thou stopped 'im on the street for to pass the time of day
In drunken tones as 'e raised 'is 'at; this is what 'e'd say

Oh a glass at night were 'is great delight, for it warmed 'im up y' know
Where often over over t' danger line t'owd beggar used to go
The parson said "My man, you're on your downward way"
But Jonathon said with 'is ususal charm " It's warm down there they say"

Then Jonathon finally met his match with a yard of ale they say
So we laid 'im out with a jug of stout for t' warm 'im on 'is way
The devil welcomed him and showed him all his charms
But Jonathon said "If this is hell, it's noan so bloody warm"

So are 5p still performing?
