don bilston - night freight كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
when people lie asleep in bed
it’s then i book on at the shed
prepare me’ engine, take on coal
to journey on the iron road

[verse 2]
it’s off the shed, to shunting yard
exchange a few words with the guard
forty wagons make the train
a green light glows, we’re right away

[verse 3]
the signal’s gleaming through the dark
the steam gauge needle’s on the mark
the tea can warms upon the hob
and the engine’s gaffer of the job

[verse 4]
the fireman in the firebox glow
swings his shovel to and fro
checks injector, cracks up coal
“i’ll give her more steam, lad, watch her roll!”

[verse 5]
we hop the twig through town and shire
the chimney belching smoke and fire
our destination comes in view
and the night is almost halfway through
[verse 6]
now relieved by another crew
it’s sent to the cabin and make a brew
a yarn and a smoke when you’ve had your snap
that leaves half_hour for you to take a little nap

[verse 7]
the train we worked backs at the peg
it’s time to wake and show a leg
“come stir yourself, mate! rise and shine!
or i’ll get papers for losing time…”

[verse 8]
we get back home and it’s off to bed
farewell a while, you loco shed
when the daylight’s gone and the night has come
i’ll be back again for another night run

- don bilston
