I am Jeremiah Dixon |
| [00:22.07] |
I am a Geordie boy |
| [00:24.83] |
A glass of wine with you, sir |
| [00:26.71] |
And the ladies I'll enjoy |
| [00:30.46] |
All Durham and Northumberland |
| [00:34.70] |
Is measured up by my own hand |
| [00:39.69] |
It was my fate from birth |
| [00:43.52] |
To make my mark upon the earth |
| [00:50.16] |
He calls me Charlie Mason |
| [00:52.62] |
A stargazer am I |
| [00:55.38] |
It seems that I was born |
| [00:57.10] |
To chart the evening sky |
| [01:00.73] |
They'd cut me out for baking bread |
| [01:05.15] |
But I had other dreams instead |
| [01:09.07] |
This baker's boy from the west country |
| [01:13.46] |
Would join the Royal Society |
| [01:19.72] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:25.41] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [01:30.05] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:35.64] |
To draw the line |
| [01:39.68] |
A Mason-Dixon Line |
| [02:05.82] |
Now you're a good surveyor, Dixon |
| [02:08.29] |
But I swear you'll make me mad |
| [02:11.73] |
The West will kill us both |
| [02:13.40] |
You gullible Geordie lad |
| [02:17.75] |
You talk of liberty |
| [02:21.51] |
How can America be free |
| [02:25.66] |
A Geordie and a baker's boy |
| [02:29.77] |
In the forests of the Iroquois |
| [02:36.54] |
Now hold your head up, Mason |
| [02:38.58] |
See America lies there |
| [02:42.19] |
The morning tide has raised |
| [02:44.00] |
The capes of Delaware |
| [02:48.01] |
Come up and feel the sun |
| [02:51.92] |
A new morning has begun |
| [02:56.03] |
Another day will make it clear |
| [03:00.62] |
Why your stars should guide us here |
| [03:06.34] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:12.39] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [03:16.61] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:22.38] |
To draw the line |
| [03:26.35] |
A Mason-Dixon Line |
| [03:31.12] |
A Mason-Dixon Line |
