Click Go The Shears - Treorchy Male Voice Choir

Down by the country bend the old shearer stands

Grasping his shears in his long bony hands

Fixed is his gaze on a bare-bellied joe

If he gets another one oh Lord won't you go

Click go the shears boys click click click

Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

And curses the old punch with the bare-bellied joe

Now with the new charm for to begin

Her number seven part never all of shipping

Don't remind be high I will tell by the truth

And dying can be things that'll be turn round cool

Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

And the curses the old punch with the bare-bellied joe

In the dating of the morning in his cane bottom chair

Since the boss of the board with his eyes everywhere

Notes well each fleece as it comes to the screen

Saying by them leaving candy country taken off clean

Click go the shears boys click click click

Wide is his blow and his hands move quick

The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow

And the curses the old punch with the bare-bellied joe

The tar-boy is there and awaiting in demand

With his tarry join ting and seeking his hand

Sees the old sheep with a cut upon its back

Here's what he's waiting for this Tar here Jack

Roll all up grow is it off on the tracks

The first pub we come to it's there we'll have a spree

And everyone that comes along it's

Come and drink with me
