Barbara Dickson - Oh Dear Me lyrics

Oh dear me The mill s gaen fast The puir wee shifters Canna get a rest Shiftin' bobbins, coarse and fine They fairly mak' ye work for your ten and nine Oh dear me I wish the day was done Runnin' up and doon the pa** Is nae fun Shiftin', piecin', spinnin' Warp, weft and twine Tae feed and cled my bairnie After ten and nine Oh dear me The warld's ill divided Them that work the hardest are aye Wi' least provided But I maun bide contented Dark days or fine There's no much pleasure living After ten and nine
