Margate

Margate - Chas & Dave

Well I'll be working hard to reach me target

To earn a few bob for a day trip down to Margate

I'm gonna blow the lot tomorrow on all me family

We catch the coach at eight

So don't be late

We're off to see the sea

Hurry up will ya Grandad come on were going

Down to Margate

Don't forget your buckets and spades and cossies and all

Down to Margate

We'll have a pill of jellied eels at the cockle stall

Down to Margate

We'll go on the pier

And we'll have a beer aside of the sea

Down to Margate

You can keep the Costa Brava

I'm telling ya mate I'd rather have a day

Down Margate with all me family

Along the promenade we spend some money

And we find a spot on the beach that's simply sunny

The kids will all enjoy themself digging up the sand

Wollecting stones and winkle shells

To take back home to nan

Behave yourself grandad or you won't be going

Down to Margate

Don't forget your buckets and spades and cossies and all

Down to Margate

We'll have a pill of jellied eels at the cockle stall

Down to Margate

We'll go on the pier

And we'll have a beer aside of the sea

Down to Margate

You can keep the Costa Brava

I'm telling ya mate

I'd rather have a day

Down Margate with all me family

You can keep the Costa Brava and all that palava

Going no farther

Me I'd rather have me a day

Down Margate with all me family
