[00:02:30] 　　　

[00:02:30] Artist：billy bragg

[00:02:30] Songs Title：between the wars

[00:02:30] I was a miner

[00:02:30] I was a docker

[00:02:30] I was a railway man

[00:02:30] Between the wars

[00:02:30] I raised a family

[00:02:30] In times of austerity

[00:02:30] With sweat at the foundry

[00:02:30] Between the wars.

[00:02:30] I paid the union and as times got harder

[00:02:30] I looked to the government to help the working man

[00:02:30] And they brought prosperity down at the armoury

[00:02:30] We're arming for peace, me boys

[00:02:30] Between the wars.

[00:02:30] I kept the faith and I kept voting

[00:02:30] Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand

[00:02:30] For theirs is a land with a wall around it

[00:02:30] And mine is a faith in my fellow man

[00:02:30] Theirs is a land of hope and glory

[00:02:30] Mine is the green field and the factory floor

[00:02:30] Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers

[00:02:30] And mine is the peace we knew

[00:02:30] Between the wars.

[00:02:30] Call up the craftsmen

[00:02:30] Bring me the draftsmen

[00:02:30] Build me a path from cradle to grave

[00:02:30] And I'll give my consent

[00:02:30] To any government

[00:02:30] That does not deny a man a living wage.

[00:02:30] Go find the young men never to fight again

[00:02:30] Bring up the banners from the days gone by

[00:02:30] Sweet moderation

[00:02:30] Heart of this nation

[00:02:30] Desert us not, we are

[00:02:30] Between the wars.
