Binmen Of Belfast

Binmen Of Belfast

By Paul McCann

In our back entries we left our bins out

And you’ would hear the bin men come and shout ,

With two hands on your bin his back was bent

And with a crash all your trash would be sent

to the back of a truck and off they’d go

round all the streets with no friendly hello .

What a great job was done by our binmen

Who emptied all our bins away back then.

Our bins were filled up with rubbish that reeked

and just like clockwork they came every week

to evict all the garbage from our bins,

the dirty nappies and the empty tins

they got their head down and got into it

up and over and every single bit

the Belfast bin men had a dirty job

Empty bins for a couple or bob .
