My Mansfield

Mansfield

Born and bred

My Hometown

Where my mother and father wed

My hometown

Where miners dug deep

Underground

And bled

For many years

My Hometown

Of hosiery and shoe making

Boxes and tins

Mansfield

Known for it's Mansfield Bitter

What we used to drink for our sins

Mansfield

My Hometown

Of singing and dancing

At the Palace Theatre

Mansfield

My hometown

Of cinemas old and new

A swimming bath

Or two

Mansfield

My hometown

Mansfield Market still bustling

Market workers still hustling

Mansfield

I'm proud to call you

My hometown
