| Why Aye Men
|
Why aye man
We had no way of staying afloat
We had to leave on the ferry boat
Economic refugees
On the run to Germany
We had the back of Maggies hand
Times were tough in Geordie land
We got wor tools and working gear
And humped it all from Newcastle to here
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man
Were the nomad tribes, travelling boys
In the dust and dirt and the racket and the noise
Drills and hammers, diggers and picks
Mixing concrete, laying bricks
Theres English, Irish, Scots, the lot
United nations what weve got
Brickies, chippies, every trade
German building, British-made
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man
No more work on Maggies farm
Headaway down the autobahn
Mines a portacabin bed
Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead
Theres plenty deutschmarks here to earn
And German tarts are wunderschoen
German beer is chemical-free
Germanys alright with me
Sometimes I miss my river Tyne
But youre my pretty fraulein
Tonight well drink the old town dry
Keep wor spirit levels high
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man
Why aye man, why aye, why aye man |
