Hope I get this right.
Wer'e known as the two Burnley mashers
We often go out on the mash
We wear our tall hats
with no shirts on our backs
its seldom we have any cash.

On Saturday we were invited
to a party by two ladies fair
Their cheeks were in bloom
like the roses in June
........sorry,back in a while........

to continue.....
like the roses in June
Its seldom we have any cares

We were dancing and drinking till midnight
On whiskey,tobacco, and rum
And then when the party was over
With the ladies we had lots of fun

And we sing tra la la
As we walk down the street
for style and fashion
we mare can be beat

All the ladies declare
that we are a treat
wer'e the two Burnley mashers
from St.James's street

Think thats all of it
cheers, from a Burnley masher

Sorry,just remembered the last verse

And we dance,tra la la la,and we sing
And we dont care a jot
Wer'e a jolly fine lot
We're alright,when we're tight
And we're jolly fime company

Thank you Snowy, my aunts used to sing that to me when they had a glass or two of sherry!
