Black  Amber
(Verse)
And the poor auld ma she hasn't got a penny
She hasn't got a penny and she's getting the kids ready
The poor auld ma and she's getting the kids ready
She hasn't got a penny to her name

(Chorus)
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Down the black & amber treating strangers like they're kings
It's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Sittin' in the freezing, wonder what the day will bring?

(Verse)
And the da out there and he's sinking one of many
He's sinking one of many and he's sinking one of many
The da out there and he's sinking pints of plain
And smoking twenty major with the change

(Chorus)
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Down the black & amber treating strangers like they're kings
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Sittin' in the freezing, wonder what the day will bring?
(Verse)
And the ma out there and she working night to morning
She's working night to morning and she's working night to morning
The ma out there and she can't afford the yawning
She doesn't have a washer to her name

(Chorus)
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Down the black & amber treating strangers like they're kings
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
We're sittin' in the evening, wonder what the night will bring?

(Verse)
For he come home senseless and we know that we will suffer
We know that we will suffer and we know that we will suffer
He come home legless and he after a fish supper
He doesn't hold a title to his name

(Chorus)
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Down the black & amber treating strangers like they're kings
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
We're sittin' in the freezing, wonder what the day will bring?
And it's oh so lonely oh
He's left us on our own - ee-oh
Down the black & amber
