I got a girl in Brixham town Her daddy don't like me hangin' 'round The boy ain't black, the boy is brown Don't he know it's a halfcaste town
Big smoke Big smoke Big smoke Big smoke
The boy is halfcaste Halfcaste Halfcaste
I got a girl up near Richmond way Her daddy don't like me to lead the girl astray The brown boy is born to serve he say Don't he know it's a different day
In the big smoke No joke Big smoke I like it Big smoke Big smoke
Mister, I'm halfcaste You see, I'm halfcaste I got no class You see, I'm halfcaste Halfcaste
