Fra Benton Bank, to Benton town,
There's not a Pitman's raw;
So when ye get to the Moor Yate,
Play footy again the wa'.

Chorus
Then hie footy, and how footy,
And footy again the wa';
And when ye get to the moor Yate,
Play footy again the wa'.

The wife went doon the Moor Lonnin,
And let her basket fa';
For when she got to the Moor Yate,
Play'd footy again the wa'

The stoby road's a stoby place,
And some o' the stobs are la'
But still there's some that's high enough
For footy again the wa'

The Holy Stone's a holy place,
The trees are thick and la';
But they are nought to the Moor Yate,
For footy again the wa'

Wapping Square is a bonny place,
The houses are but sma;
But in them yet there's room enough,
For footy again the wa'

The lady did not like the house,
For the air it was raw;
It was sweeter far at the Moor Yate,
For footy again the wa'

Young Cuddy is a bonny lad,
An Robin's tall and sma;
But if you come to wour twon end,
They'll footy again the wa'
