Poverty Knock Lyrics
What Are The Lyrics For Poverty Knock By Chumbawamba? [Chorus 'Poverty poverty knock,' my loom is a saying all day Poverty poverty knock, gaffer's too skinny to pay Poverty poverty knock, keeping one eye on the clock I know I can guttle when I hear my shuttle go, 'poverty poverty knock' Up every morning at five, I wonder that we keep alive Tired and yawning in the cold morning It's back to the dreary old drive. [Chorus] Oh dear we're going to be late Gaffer is stood at the gate We're out of pockets, our wages they'll dock it We'll have to buy grub on the slate [Chorus] And when our wages they'll bring, we're often short of a string While we are fighting with gaffer for snatching (?) We know to his breast he will cling [Chorus] Sometimes a shuttle flies out and gives some poor woman a clout There she lies bleeding but nobody's heeding Oh who's going to carry her out? [Chorus] Oh dear, my poor head it sings I should have woven three strings My threads are breaking and my back is aching Oh dear, I wish I had wings Poverty poverty knock Poverty poverty knock Poverty poverty knock
