amaidí - ship repairing men كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
from the workshops off we go, toolkits heavy in our hands
to a big ship that’s come in from a trip to foreign lands
salty streaks of rust have marked her, but the moorings hold her tight
and we’ll work to fix her engines, all today and half the night

[refrain]
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men

[verse 2]
oil_fired boilers throb with power, drinking up the furnace heat
water turns to driving steam to make the engines beat
and the feed pump’s sighing wail to us cuts through all other sound
as it sings a song of triumph, for the valves that we have ground

[refrain]
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men

[verse 3]
engine bearings that knocked and hammered through the wild and stormy seas
will be machined and fitted ’til they run with silent ease
and that winch that rattles every time the piston turns the shaft
will hum along and sing its song to men sk!lled in their craft
[refrain]
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men

[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
when you see an ocean liner glide between the river banks
and the captain in his gold braid orders men of lesser ranks
have you thought perhaps this stately craft might never sail again
if it wasn’t for the toil and sweat of ship repairing men?

[refrain]
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men

[verse 1]
from the workshops off we go, toolkits heavy in our hands
to a big one that’s come in from a trip to foreign lands
salty streaks of rust have marked her, but the moorings hold her tight
and we’ll work to fix her engines, all today and half the night

[refrain]
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men
don’t wait up for me this evening, i’ll be out all night again
working on the brisbane river with the ship repairing men
[instrumental outro]
