Why Aye Man - Mark Knopfler[00:00:00]
Written by:Mark Knopfler[00:00:02]
We had no way of staying afloat[00:00:22]
We had to leave on the ferry boat[00:00:26]
Economic refugees[00:00:30]
On the run to Germany[00:00:35]
We had the back of Maggie's hand[00:00:39]
Times were tough in Geordieland[00:00:43]
We got work tools and working gear[00:00:48]
And humped it all from Newcastle to here[00:00:50]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:00:56]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:01:01]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:01:05]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:01:09]
We're the nomad tribes travelling boys[00:01:30]
Why aye why aye man[00:01:32]
In the dust and dirt and the racket and the noise[00:01:34]
Why aye why aye man[00:01:36]
Drills and hammers diggers and picks[00:01:38]
Why aye why aye man[00:01:40]
Mixing concrete laying bricks[00:01:43]
Why aye why aye man[00:01:45]
There's English Irish Scots the lot[00:01:47]
United nation's what we've got[00:01:51]
Brickies chippies every trade[00:01:56]
German building British made[00:01:58]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:02:04]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:02:08]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:02:13]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:02:17]
No more work on Maggie's farm[00:02:38]
Hardaway down the autobahn[00:02:42]
Mine's a portacabin bed[00:02:47]
Or a bunk in a Nissan hut instead[00:02:51]
There's plenty Deutschmarks here to earn[00:03:18]
Why aye why aye man[00:03:20]
And German tarts are wunderschoen[00:03:22]
Why aye why aye man[00:03:24]
German beer is chemical free[00:03:26]
Why aye why aye man[00:03:28]
Germany's alreet with me[00:03:31]
Why aye why aye man[00:03:33]
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne[00:03:35]
But you're my pretty fraulein[00:03:39]
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry[00:03:44]
Keep work spirit levels high[00:03:46]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:03:53]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:03:57]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:04:01]
Why aye man why aye why aye man[00:04:05]
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne[00:04:26]
But you're my pretty fraulein[00:04:30]
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry[00:04:35]
Keep work spirit levels high[00:04:39]
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne[00:04:43]
But you're my pretty fraulein[00:04:48]
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry[00:04:52]
Keep work spirit levels high[00:04:57]
