Текст песни Mark Knopfler - Why Aye Man
"WHY AYE MAN"
We had no way of staying afloat,
We had to leave on a ferryboat
Economic refugees,
On the run to Germany
We had the back of Maggie's hand,
Times were tough in Geordieland
We got our tools and working gear
And humped it all from Newcastle to here
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
We're nomad tribes, travelling boys,
In the dust and dirt and the wrecking noise
Drills and hammers, diggers and picks,
Mixing concrete, laying bricks
There's English, Irish, Scots, the lot
United Nations what we got
Brickies, chippies, every trade
German building, British made
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
Nay more work on Maggie's farm
Head away down the autobahn
Mine's a Portakabin bed,
Or a bunk in a Nissen hut instead
There's plenty Deutschmarks here to earn
And German tarts are wundersch?°?
German beer is chemical free
Germany's alright with me
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne,
But you're my pretty fr???lein
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry,
Keep our spirit levels high
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man
Why aye, why aye man
Why aye man,
Why aye, why aye man
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne,
But you're my pretty fr???lein
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry,
Keep our spirit levels high
Sometimes I miss my River Tyne,
But you're my pretty fr???lein
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry,
Keep our spirit levels high
