Walking on cobbled stones [00:00:18]

Little bits of skin and bone[00:00:23]

Jumping on the tram car for a ride[00:00:27]

I can remember then [00:00:35]

I was just a boy of ten[00:00:39]

Hanging around the old keyside[00:00:43]

Now all the capstans and the cargo boats[00:00:52]

And stevadores are gone[00:00:57]

To where all the old ships go[00:01:00]

But memories just like the seas live on[00:01:03]

'Cause that was when coal was king [00:01:08]

The river a living thing[00:01:12]

And I was just a boy but it was mine [00:01:17]

The coaly tyne[00:01:23]

This was a big river [00:01:27]

I want you all to know that I was proud[00:01:32]

This was a big river [00:01:40]

But that was long ago [00:01:45]

That's not now that's not now[00:01:48]

My father was a working man [00:01:58]

He earned our living with his hands[00:02:03]

He had to cross the river every day[00:02:07]

He picked up a union[00:02:15]

Card out of the neptune yard[00:02:17]

Mouths to feed and the bills to pay[00:02:23]

Then came a time for him[00:02:32]

To sail across the seas[00:02:35]

And far away[00:02:38]

Finally when that war was won[00:02:40]

You brought him home and home he stayed[00:02:44]

And when his days were done [00:02:49]

Under a golden sun[00:02:53]

You took him back to where he longed to be [00:02:57]

Back to the sea[00:03:03]

For this was a big river [00:03:07]

I want you all to know that I was proud[00:03:12]

This was a big river [00:03:20]

But that was long ago [00:03:25]

That's not now[00:03:28]

That's not how[00:03:32]

That's not now[00:03:45]

The neptune was the last to go [00:03:55]

I heard it on my radio[00:03:59]

And then they played the latest number one[00:04:03]

But what do they do all day [00:04:12]

And what are they supposed to say [00:04:16]

What does a father tell his son [00:04:20]

If you you believe[00:04:29]

That there's a bond between our future[00:04:31]

And our past[00:04:35]

Try to hold on to what we had [00:04:37]

We build them strong we built to last[00:04:41]

'Cause this is a mighty town [00:04:45]

Built upon solid ground[00:04:50]

And everything they've tried so hard to kill [00:04:54]

We will rebuild[00:05:00]

For this was a big river[00:05:04]

I want you all to know[00:05:09]

That I'm so very proud[00:05:13]

This was a big river [00:05:17]

But that was long ago [00:05:22]

That's not now[00:05:25]

And this is a big big river [00:05:29]

And in my heart I know it will rise again[00:05:34]

The river will rise again[00:05:41]
