ronnie drew - building up and tearing england down كلمات أغنية
oh, i won a hero’s name with mcalpine and costain
with fitzpatrick, murphy, ash, and the wimpey’s gang
i’ve been often on the road on me way to draw the dole
when there’s nothing left to do for johnny laing
and i used to think that god made the mixer, pick and hod
so a paddy might no h_ll above the ground
i’ve had ganger’s big and tough tell me tear it all out rough
when you’re building up and tearing england down
in a tunnel under ground a young limerick man was found
he was built into the new victoria line
when the bonus gang had passed, sticking from a concrete cast
was thе face of little charlie joе divine
and the ganger man mcgurk said big paddy hates to work
when the gas main blew and he flew off the ground
oh, they swore he said don’t slack, i’ll not be there until i’m back
keep on building up and tearing england down
i was on the hydro dam on the day that jack mccann
got the better of his stammer in a week
he fell from the shuttering jamb
and that poor old stuttering man
he was never ever more inclined to speak
and i saw old bald mccall with a big flyover fall
into a concrete mixer spinning round
tough it wasn’t his intent, he got a fine head of cement
when he was building up and tearing england down
i remember carrier jack with his hod upon his back
how he swore one day he’d set the world on fire
well his face they’ve never seen since his shovel it cut clean
through the middle of the big high tension wires
oh, no more like robin hood will he roam through cricklewood
or dance around the pubs in camden town
oh, but let no man complain, sure old pat can die in vain
when he’s building up and tearing england down
so come all you navvies bold, do not think that english gold
is just waiting to be taken from each sod
by the likes of you and me will never get the o.b.e
or a knighthood for good service to the hod
they’ve the concrete master race for to keep you in your place
and a ganger man to kick you to the ground
if you ever try to take part of what the bosses make
when you’re building up and tearing england down
