《Building up and Tearing England Down》歌词

[00:00:00] Building Up And Tearing England Down - Donal Lunny
[00:00:05] I've won a hero's name
[00:00:08] With McAlpine and Costain
[00:00:12] With Fitzpatrick Murphy Ashe
[00:00:14] And Wimpey's gang
[00:00:17] I've been often on the road
[00:00:20] On my way to draw the dole
[00:00:23] When there's nothing left
[00:00:25] To do for Sir John Laing
[00:00:29] Now I used to think that God
[00:00:32] Made the mixer pick and hod
[00:00:35] So that Paddy might know hell above the ground
[00:00:41] I've had gangers big
[00:00:43] And tough tell me tear it all out rough
[00:00:47] When you're building up and tearing England down
[00:00:53] In a tunnel underground a young Limerick man was found
[00:00:59] He was built into the new Victoria Line
[00:01:05] When the pouring gang had past sticking
[00:01:09] Through the concrete cast
[00:01:11] Was the face of little Charlie Joe Devine
[00:01:17] And the ganger man McGurk big Paddy ate the work
[00:01:22] When the gas main burst
[00:01:25] And he flew off the ground
[00:01:28] Oh they swear he said Don't slack
[00:01:31] I'll not be here until I'm back
[00:01:34] Keep on building up and tearing England down
[00:01:43] I was on the shuttering dam
[00:01:46] On the day that Jack McCann
[00:01:49] Got the better of his stammer in a week
[00:01:55] He fell from the shuttering dam
[00:01:58] And that poro old stuttering man
[00:02:01] He was never ever more inclined to speak
[00:02:07] And I saw old Balls McColl with a big flyover fall
[00:02:13] Into a concrete mixer spinning round
[00:02:19] Through it wasn't his intent
[00:02:21] He got a fine head of cement
[00:02:24] When he was building up and tearing England down
[00:02:33] I remember Carrier Jack with his hod upon his back
[00:02:39] How he swore he'd one day set the world on fire
[00:02:45] But his face they've never seen
[00:02:48] Since his shovel it cut clean
[00:02:51] Through the middle of a big high tension wire
[00:02:57] Oh the more like Robin Hood
[00:03:00] Well he wrung trough Cricklewood
[00:03:04] Or dance around the pubs in Camdon Town
[00:03:09] Oh but let no man complain
[00:03:12] Old Pad' could die in shame
[00:03:15] When he's building up and tearing England down
[00:03:23] So come all you navvy's bold
[00:03:26] Do not think that English gold
[00:03:29] Is just waiting to be taken from each sod
[00:03:35] By the likes of you and me could never get the O B E
[00:03:41] Or a knighthood for good service to the hod
[00:03:47] It's the concrete master race
[00:03:50] That would keep you in your place
[00:03:54] And a ganger man to kick you to the ground
[00:04:00] If you ever try to take part of what the bosses made
[00:04:05] When you're building up and tearing England down
