The Hoogs - Scarborough Rose Lyrics

There's tank blocks on Druridge Bay
Waste pipes on Cresswell Bay
Newbiggin beach she has coal dust today
I think of my favourite town
East Yorkshires shining crown
Take me back down before I shall surely drown

Scarborough, oh Scarborough the town that's so great
I once knew a man who delivered its freight
Scarborough, oh Scarborough so vibrant and gay
There once was a ship that was berthed...
For a day

Are you going to Scarborough fair
Said Mr Simon I'm sure you're aware
Not really poss it's been closed many years but there's a man in the town who sells many a fur, many furs ...

Scarborough, oh Scarborough the town that's so great
I once knew a man who delivered its freight
Scarborough, oh Scarborough so vibrant and gay
There once was a ship that was berthed for a day
For a day ( for a day ? )
For a day ( for a day ? )
At Vincents Pier

My favourite town is now sad like the clown
If it wasn't for Wetherspoons we'd all be real down
So put on your glad rags and take off that frown
Join me at Roseberys pub in the town , in the town

Scarborough, oh Scarborough the town that's so great
I once knew a man who delivered its freight
Scarborough, oh Scarborough so vibrant and gay
There once was a ship that was berthed for a day
Scarborough, Scarborough the town that's so great
I hope you don't suffer a fate ...
Like Whitley Bay
