lyrics

I'VE FORGOTTEN MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW ABOUT YORKSHIRE

You think it’s all flat caps, whippets and tripe
But that’s just an old hackneyed stereotype
I’ve forgotten more than you'll ever know about Yorkshire

You think you will find all that is good
In every warm mouthful of each Yorkshire pud
But I’ve forgotten more than you'll ever know about Yorkshire

You thought you knew all about us
From Emmerdale on the TV
But you need to look deeper inside us
For memories of what used to be

You think it’s all fish and chips and mushy peas,
But we’ve got Theakston’s bitter and Wensleydale cheese
And I’ve forgotten more than you'll ever know about Yorkshire

You think Yorkshire’s yours, to have and to hold
Someday you'll learn, when my story’s told
That I’ve forgotten more than you'll ever know about Yorkshire
