Song Lyrics

(for guide purposes only)

He painted
Salford's smokey tops
on cardboard
boxes from the shops

And parts of Ancoats
where I used to play
I'm sure he once
walked down our
street Ôcause he
painted kids who had
nowt on their feet

The clothes we wore
had all see better days
Now they said his
works of art were dull,
no room all
round the walls are
full

But Lowry didn't care
much anyway
They said he just
paints cats and dogs
and matchstalk
men in boots and clogs
And Lowry said that's
just the way they'll stay
And he painted
matchstalk
men and matchstalk
cats and dogs
He painted kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
factory gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
Now canvas and
brushes were wearing
thin when London
started calling him
To come on down
and wear the old flat
cap

They said tell us all
about your ways
and all about them
Salford days
Is it true you're just
an ordinary chap
And he painted
matchstalk
men and matchstalk
cats and dogs
He painted kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
factory gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
Now Lowry's hang
upon the wall
beside the greatest
of them all
And even the
Mona Lisa takes
a bow

This tired old man
with hair like
snow told northern
folk its time to go
The fever came and
the good lord
mopped his brow

And he left us
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
He left us kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
pearly gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
And he left us
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
He left us kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
pearly gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
And he left us
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
He left us kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
pearly gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
And he left us
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
He left us kids on
the corner of
the street that were
sparking clogs
Now he takes his
brush and he
waits outside them
pearly gates
To paint his
matchstalk men and
matchstalk
cats and dogs
