Watch ‘im goo, you gradley prancer,
Tappin' toes, an' clackin' ‘eels;
Jumpin' Jack, ‘ee's best clug dancer
E'er stepped eawt wi' jigs an' reels.
Twistin', turnin', pointin', prancin',
While th' owd fiddle sings away;
Leeter than a fither dancin'
On a breeze i' t'month o' May
Watch yon childer clap together,
Keepin' time t' click an' clack,
Summer, Winther, onny weather,
Eawt thi coom to Jumpin' Jack.
Carnivals corn't do wi' eawt ‘im,
Churches want ‘im for t' bazaars,
O'er Sixties weren't bi beawt ‘im,
Sooner ‘im ner t' telly stars.
Watch ‘im goo, you gradley prancer,
Tappin' toes, an' clackin' ‘eels;
Jumpin' Jack, ‘ee's best clug dancer
E'er stepped eawt wi' jigs an' reels.
Twistin', turnin', pointin', prancin',
While th' owd fiddle sings away;
Leeter than a fither dancin'
On a breeze i' t'month o' May
Pair on pair o' clugs ‘ee's batthered,
Still ‘is pins er sthraight an ‘ thrue,
As on t' day when ‘ee fust clatthered,
I' new clugs when ‘ee were two.
Jack lad, keep thi toes I' fettle,
Mak' eawr spirits gay an' leet,
Though thi clugs be shod wi' metal,
Wi find gowd I' them two feet.
Watch ‘im goo, you gradley prancer,
Tappin' toes, an' clackin' ‘eels;
Jumpin' Jack, ‘ee's best clug dancer
E'er stepped eawt wi' jigs an' reels.
Twistin', turnin', pointin', prancin',
While th' owd fiddle sings away;
Leeter than a fither dancin'
On a breeze i' t'month o' May
