A perhaps fanciful notion of the 30's miners gettin down on Saturday night after a hard week in the mines.

lyrics

Pooley Street Stomp

V1
Got myself a pretty twenty dollar bill
Gonna have a little fun from here to Barkerville
Got a little feeling that I can’t be beat
Got a meeting with my baby up on Pooley Steet
Oh yeah my we’ll be shaking the blues away

V2
All week long workin at the mine
Lookin on to Saturday a quittin time
Gonna be steppin out and look my best
Gonna have a little fun til I forget the rest
And oh my – we’ll be shakin the blues away

Chorus
Where do we meet? On Pooley street
Now where’s the beat? on Pooley Street
Pooley Street we’re shakin the blues away

V3
Tighten up the buttons on my one good suit
Divvy up a quarter for a fine cheroot
Boppin down the Avenue and golly gee
There’s ella with a fella in a Model T
And Oh my they’re shakin the blues away

Chorus
Musical Interlude

V4
Air is cool but the band is hot
Everybody givin everything they got
Silver moon up in the sky
Heard about the boppin so it’s stopping by
And oo my she’ll be shinin and designing down on our delight on Satday night

Chorus

Ross Douglas SOCAN
