Why Aye Man歌词

[00:08.73]We had no way of staying afloat,
[00:13.02]We had to leave on a ferryboat.
[00:17.40]Economic refugees,
[00:21.66]On the run to Germany.
[00:25.85]We had the back of Maggie's hand,
[00:30.14]Times were tough in Geordieland.
[00:34.44]We got wor tools and working gear
[00:36.54]And humped it all from Newcastle to here.
[00:42.99]Why aye man.
[00:45.10]Why aye, why aye man.
[00:47.24]Why aye man,
[00:49.38]Why aye, why aye man.
[00:51.52]Why aye man.
[00:53.63]Why aye, why aye man.
[00:55.86]Why aye man,
[00:58.00]Why aye, why aye man.
[01:16.12]We're nomad tribes, travelling boys,
[01:20.41]In the dust and dirt and the racket and the noise.
[01:24.88]Drills and hammers, diggers and picks,
[01:29.11]Mixing concrete, laying bricks.
[01:33.33]There's English, Irish, Scots, the lot.
[01:37.57]United Nations' what we've got.
[01:41.99]Brickies, chippies, every trade.
[01:44.13]German building, British made.
[01:50.69]Why aye man.
[01:52.80]Why aye, why aye man.
[01:54.89]Why aye man,
[01:57.00]Why aye, why aye man.
[01:59.19]Why aye man.
[02:01.39]Why aye, why aye man.
[02:03.43]Why aye man,
[02:05.59]Why aye, why aye man.
[02:24.48]Nay more work on Maggie's farm.
[02:28.99]Haddaway down the autobahn.
[02:33.17]Mine's a Portakabin bed,
[02:37.26]Or a bunk in a Nissen hut instead.
[02:57.84]There's plenty Deutschmarks here to earn.
[03:02.14]And German tarts are wundersch鰊.
[03:06.46]German beer is chemical free.
[03:10.81]Germany's alright with me.
[03:15.09]Sometimes I miss my river Tyne,
[03:19.32]But you're my pretty fr鋟lein.
[03:23.80]Tonight we'll drink the old town dry,
[03:25.85]Keep wor spirit levels high.
[03:32.42]Why aye man.
[03:34.51]Why aye, why aye man.
[03:36.67]Why aye man,
[03:38.74]Why aye, why aye man.
[03:40.94]Why aye man.
[03:43.10]Why aye, why aye man.
[03:45.30]Why aye man,
[03:47.40]Why aye, why aye man.
