No Biscuit Blues - Kate & Anna McGarrigle

Never had no biscuit

Never had no sweater to wear

To keep me from the cold

Never no potato

Never had no leather on my feet

'Til I was five years old

When I was a baby

My mammy said

I never had no food to keep me full

And I never had no sweater made of wool

And that went and made my daddy have to pull

A JOB

Which means he had to rob

But now tho I have a biscuit

And I have a sweater to wear

To keep me from the cold

My mammy she is crying

'Cause my daddy he is lying

With no biscuit and no sweater

On the cold stone floor

While my mammy and me

We don't want for nothing more
