Sid the bad snowman blew in with a blast
And he looked like King Kong shaking Emley Moor mast
All across Yorkshire the signal went down
During E.T. and the speech from the Crown
But here's Bill, Bill with a fresh pot of tea
And he melts Sid and saves Christmas TV
Big Brave Bill, from Barnsley he came
Big Brave Bill from the mine
Big Brave Bill, we'll remember his name
The hero who sups' up his tea all the time
The snow it was falling one cold Christmas day
When Daisy and Phoebe they went out to play
Racing their sledges they should have thought twice
When they stopped on the lake with a sign saying THIN ICE
But here's Bill, Bill with a somersault spin
He scooped up the girls as the ice it caved in
Big Brave Bill, from Barnsley he came
Big Brave Bill from the mine
Big Brave Bill, we'll remember his name
The hero who sups' up his tea all the time
Old Mrs Dobbins from down the Dearnside
Flew out to Lapland to take a sleigh ride
She came across Santa in a ten-foot snow drift
"We need Bill's strong arms here to help with the lift"
And here's Bill, Bill with his old miners lamp
He dug Santa out, now he's our Christmas champ
Big Brave Bill, from Barnsley he came
Big Brave Bill from the mine
Big Brave Bill, we'll remember his name
The hero who sups' up his tea all the time
Big Brave Bill, from Barnsley he came
Big Brave Bill from the mine
Big Brave Bill, we'll remember his name
The hero who thinks Yorkshire
The hero who loves Yorkshire
The hero who drinks Yorkshire tea all the time
