Old Jack Norris, the musical shrimp and the kajing ramble.
A little bit of this, would you like a bit of that?
[F] But in weather like this, you should wear a coat, a nice warm hat,
[Bbm] a needle and thread, the hand stitches of time,
[F] battling Levinsky versus Jackie Burr,
robbing and weaving an invisible line.
[Gb] So step for step, and both lights [Bbm] on our feet,
[Gb] we'll travel many a long, [F] dim, silent street.
[Bbm] Would you like a bit of this?
Or a little bit of that?
[F] A little bit of what you like does you no harm, you know that.
[Bbm] Perpetual steady echo of the passing beat,
a continual [F] dark river of people.
In its transience and in its permanence,
[Gb] but when the street lamp fills the [Bbm] gutter with gold,
so [Gb] many priceless items [F] bought and sold.

sailors from Africa, China, and [Eb] the archipelago of [Ab] Malay.
Jump ship [Dbm] ragged and penniless [Eb] into Shadwell's [Ab] Tiger Bay.
[Gb] The Welsh and [Db] Irish wag tails, [Ebm] mothers of [F] midnight.
[Gb] The musical [Db]
carousal in [Eb] spilling out into [G] bonfire light.
[Dbm] Sending half-crazed shadows, [Eb] giants
dancing up [Ab] the bread wall [Dbm] of Mr Truman's beer factory.
[Eb] Waving bottles ten [Ab] feet tall.
[Gb] Whether one calls it [Db] Smittelfields, Whitechapel [Ebm] Tower,
Hamlets or [F] Bangletown.
[Gb] We're all dancing [Db] in the moonlight.
[Eb] We're all on [Ab] borrowed ground.
Oh, [Gb] I'm just [Db] walking down to, [E] I'm just [B] floating down through.
[D] Won't you [Gbm] come with me to the [Eb] liberty of [E] Norton Folgate?
But wait, [Dbm] what's that?

_ _ You're a part of [Dbm] everything you see.
_ [Ab] _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _
Present sturdy old fellows, pickpockets, [Eb] dandies,
extortioners and night [Ab] wanderers.
[Dbm] The feeble, the ghastly upon whom death [Eb] had placed a very [Ab] sure hand.
[Gb] Summon shreds and [Db] patches, really [Ebm] inarticulate,
full of noisy and inordinate [F] vivacity.
[Gb] Which jars [Db] discordantly upon the ear
[Eb] and gives an aching sensation to both pair of [D] eyeballs. _ _ _ _ _ _
