Dead Man’s Boots (《末日之舰》音乐剧歌曲) - Michael Esper/Collin Kelly-Sordelet/Jamie Jackson[00:00:00]

Written by：Sting[00:00:02]

You said you've seen these work boots in my hands[00:00:17]

They'll probably fit ye now my son[00:00:21]

Take them they're a gift from me[00:00:24]

Why don't you try them on[00:00:27]

Cause it would do your old man good to see[00:00:29]

You walking in these boots one day[00:00:32]

And take your place among the men[00:00:36]

Who work upon the slipway[00:00:39]

These dead man's boots[00:00:41]

Though they're old and curled[00:00:43]

When a feller needs a job[00:00:45]

And a place in the world[00:00:46]

And it's time for a man to put down roots[00:00:47]

And walk to the river in your old man's boots[00:00:53]

I said why in the hell would I do that[00:00:59]

And why would I agree[00:01:02]

When your hand was all that I'd received[00:01:05]

As far as I remember[00:01:08]

Well it's not as if you'd spoiled me[00:01:11]

With your kindness up to then ye see[00:01:13]

I'd a plan of me own and I'd quit this place[00:01:16]

When I came of age September[00:01:20]

These dead man's boots know[00:01:22]

Their way down the hill[00:01:24]

They can walk there themselves[00:01:26]

And they probably will[00:01:27]

I'd plenty of choices[00:01:29]

And plenty other routes[00:01:30]

And he'd never see me[00:01:34]

Walking in these dead man's boots[00:01:35]

What was it made him think[00:01:40]

I'd be happy ending up like him[00:01:43]

When he'd hardly got two halfpennies left[00:01:46]

Or a broken pot to piss in[00:01:49]

And he wanted this same thing for me[00:01:52]

Was that his final wish[00:01:55]

And what the hell you're going to do[00:01:58]

Anything but this[00:02:01]

These dead man's boots[00:02:04]

Know their way down the hill[00:02:05]

They can walk there themselves[00:02:07]

And they probobly will[00:02:08]

But they won't walk with me[00:02:10]

Cause I'm off the other way[00:02:11]

I've had it up to here[00:02:13]

I'm gonna have my say[00:02:14]

When all ye've got left is that cross on the wall[00:02:16]

I want nothing from you[00:02:19]

I want nothing at all[00:02:20]

Not a pension nor a pittance[00:02:22]

When your whole life is through[00:02:23]

Get this through your head[00:02:25]

I'm nothing like you[00:02:26]

I'm done with all the arguments[00:02:28]

There'll be no more dispute[00:02:32]

And ye'll die before ye see me[00:02:38]

In these dead man's boots[00:02:40]
