lyrics

You're sweet as honey but you're sharp as a tack
Feet in the gutter, but your head's in the clouds.
Your eyes shine like the broken glass
Coverin' the streets of your home town.
I'll take you anywhere girl, I ain't ashamed
The realest thing that I ever had.
You're the Tramp to my Lady, Pauper to my Prince.
Like finding a diamond in a kebab.
There ain't no right or wrong side of the tracks
And me I got the best of both worlds
So I wouldn't change a thing bout my Huddersfield Girl.

And when you, tell moving stories of your childhood
I hang on every Northern word.
You guys had nothing but the fire in your hearts
You don't know how lucky you were. You tell me
you used to have blue dreads. Used to smoke cigarettes
And sometimes skive off school. And though I
can't pretend to fully condone that kind of behaviour
I will admit it's quite cool.
I know you ain't had it easy,
But without grit we wouldn't get no pearls
Say you'll always be… my gritty Huddersfield Girl.

You say moo-er, while I say moor
My friends don't always understand the way that you talk
You may not be shoo-er but this time I'm sure
That as long as you want me I'm gon' be your Harrogate Boy.
Sing sha-la-la-la-lala.

[Shenanigan solo]

Our first date, I buy you olives in an award-winning spa town
I know it's like a dream come true
But me I'd be happy in a Pizza Express
Long as I'm sharin doughballs with you. You built a...

Milnsbridge between us and you Meltham'd my heart. Turned this…
Hillhouse into a Holme (with an L. And an E on the end).
You got me on the Edgerton of my seat
Cos I can't Linthwaite to see your Nether Thong.
In the nite there ain't no class divide
when I'm making sweet love to her.
So I pray she'll always be — always be my Huddersfield Girl.
