KEEP YA TIMBER IN & YA POWDER DRY - A song written as a tribute to the hard working miners of Ashington, remembered.

lyrics

Old dads, young lads, brothers and Grandad's
Keep it all beating in the heart of Northumberland
Black gold is good for the soul.
You can't whack a cree full of coal

Rolling up. Rolling up and up
Rolling up. Rolling up

So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry
So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry

Brave men, proud men, different generation
Leaving at home, scared women and children
Don't worry pet I'll be right back
With an empty bait bag and money in my pack

Rolling up. Rolling up and up
Rolling up. Rolling up

So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry
So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry. Whey aye!

Some are lost and fall alone
Not all the boys can make it back home
We wont forget your memory
You are a part of our history

Rolling up. Rolling up and up
Rolling up. Rolling up

So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry
So down low with a spirit so high
Keep ya timber in and ya powder dry. Whey aye!
