Текст песни Big Big Train - Swan Hunter

Текст:

SWAN HUNTER (Spawton/Longdon) As a kid I'd see the ships Slowly taking shape, Nightshift riveters and caulkers Keeping us awake. My dad worked at Swan In the Neptune Yard, Worked the slipways in all weather, 7.30 start. Call me up boy, Sit you down by the fireside, spend some time. All the pride boy, And the tears, Tears enough to fill the Tyne. Gleaming vessels Filling up the sky, Dwarfing rows of terraced houses Larger than life. Tell me what do you do, When what you did is gone. No one throwing you a lifeline, How do you carry on? Call me up boy, Sit you down by the fireside spend some time. All the pride boy, And the tears, Tears enough to fill the Tyne. So much larger than life, From father to son We carry it on. It isn't going change the world, It isn't going to change the past, 'Cos some things are meant to last. So much larger than life From father to son, We carry it on. Call me up boy, Sit you down by the fireside spend some time. All the pride boy, And the tears, Tears enough to fill the Tyne.
