    Funny but I was thinking of this song today. It starts with:
    I nearly hoyed mesel off the Byker wall when a saw wor lass with a puff from Darras Hall
    singing howay ya bugger every body get doon, it's frida neet and wa gannin ti the toon
    howay ya bugger every body get doon, it's frida neet will gan tappin doon the toon.
    Afraid the rest of it escapes me although there is a bit about getting "hoyd out of Julies for hocklin on the floor" lol. And as the music fades at the end the singer adds the odd "check it oot" and "play that funky guitar kidda"
    Brilliant.

    Default Complete lyrics

    Just found the single lying in a cupboard. It's by David Baird with Steve Doyle on drums and Duly Wigglan on electric mandolin. Enjoy:

    A nearly hoyd meesel off the Byker wall
    when a saw wor lass with a puff from Darras Hall
    so me mate sez “howay Dot revenge l’l come soon
    it’s Friday neet will gan tappin doon the toon”

    Chorus singin howay ye bugger everybody get doon
    it’s Friday neet will gan tappin in the toon
    singin howay ye bugger everybody get doon
    it’s Friday neet will gan tappin in the toon

    Well a seen a lass a fancied suckin a pop
    ad seen a once before doon the tattoo shop
    “howay pet whats me chance”?
    she says “ya hairs too long and there’s chip grease on ya pants”
    but me mate had a cap on and he asked a doon the coast
    she nutted him and kicked him where it hurts the most
    a says ti me marra “hows it gannin see far”?
    then the barman shoots “see ya drinks off and blaa”

    Chorus Howay ye bugger everybody get doon
    it’s Friday neet and wa gannin te the toon
    Howay ye bugger everybody get doon
    it’s Friday neet and wa gannin te the toon

    Wi went doon te Julies, me mate fell doon the stairs
    all the kids was laffin at me high waisted flairs
    me mate was mad coz he lost a platform boot
    he hockled on the floor and the bouncers hoyd im oot
    all the disco music was ringin in me ear
    when a woke up in the morning a was bad with the beer
    me mate shoots “kidda wiv got a bus te catch
    Aafew mair pints and will gann te the match”

    If you want a copy I could try and e-mail it to you. PM me.
