Billy And Jacky Lyrics


Fat & Frantic Billy And Jacky


Oh Jack & Billy went to work
Then they went on strike
Oh Jack & Bill were just like brothers
Close as you like
But with eight months on the picket
And the New Year coming in
Billy carried on the struggle
Oh but Jacky, he jacked it in

Billy will not talk to Jacky any more
Billy will not have the scab coming knocking on his
door
Oh it's twelve months Bill's been back at work
Jack's an extra four
And Billy will not talk to Jacky any more

They were brothers in the springtime
And the summer days were fine
As they stood against the lorries
Taking coal across the line
But when the autumn brought the rain
And then the winter brought the snow
Jack said "I'll not see my children suffer,
Back to work I go"

Billy will not talk to Jacky any more
Billy will not have the scab coming knocking on his
door
Oh it's twelve months Bill's been back at work
Jack's an extra four
And Billy will not talk to Jacky any more

They were fighting for their families
But disagreed on how
Billy chose his children's future
Jacky chose his children's now
There was nothing came between them
But a poxy month or four
Billy will not talk to Jacky any more

Billy will not talk to Jacky any more
Billy will not have the dirty scab come knocking on his
door
Oh it's twelve months Bill's back at work
Jack's an extra four
And Billy will not talk to Jacky any more
