[00:00:00] Dignity - Deacon Blue

[00:00:00] Written by：Ricky Ross

[00:00:18] There's a man i meet walks up our street

[00:00:22] He's a worker for the council

[00:00:24] Has been twenty years

[00:00:27] And he takes no lip off nobody

[00:00:29] And litter off the gutter

[00:00:31] Puts it in a bag

[00:00:33] And never seems to mutter

[00:00:36] And he packs his lunch in a "sunblest" bag

[00:00:38] The children call him "bogie"

[00:00:40] He never lets on

[00:00:42] But i know 'cause he once told me

[00:00:45] He let me know a secret about the money in his kitty

[00:00:49] He's gonna buy a dinghy

[00:00:52] Gonna call her dignity

[00:01:03] And i'll sail her up the west coast

[00:01:06] Through villages and towns

[00:01:08] I'll be on my holidays

[00:01:10] They'll be doing their rounds

[00:01:12] They'll ask me how i got her i'll say "i saved my money"

[00:01:17] They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity

[00:01:33] And i'm telling this story

[00:01:35] In a faraway scene

[00:01:38] Sipping down raki

[00:01:40] And reading maynard keynes

[00:01:42] And i'm thinking about home and all that means

[00:01:47] And a place in the winter for dignity

[00:02:01] And i'll sail her up the west coast

[00:02:03] Through villages and towns

[00:02:05] I'll be on my holidays

[00:02:07] They'll be doing their rounds

[00:02:10] They'll ask me how i got her i'll say "i saved my money"

[00:02:14] They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity

[00:02:49] Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up

[00:02:53] Yeh set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again

[00:02:57] Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up

[00:03:02] Yeh set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again

[00:03:06] And i'm thinking about home

[00:03:15] And i'm thinking about faith

[00:03:24] And i'm thinking about work

[00:03:33] And i'm thinking about how good it would be

[00:03:38] To be here some day

[00:03:42] On a ship called dignity

[00:03:45] A ship called dignity

[00:03:49] That ship
