| [00:00.00] |
One song at a time |
| [00:41.89] |
My whistle under the archways |
| [00:44.07] |
Still echoes down the street |
| [00:47.16] |
All the way back to Deptford days |
| [00:49.79] |
Nights down by The Creek |
| [00:51.89] |
Notes as big as river boats |
| [00:54.54] |
Still echoing through the clubs |
| [00:57.08] |
With the horns of the trains |
| [00:58.03] |
Down the old back lanes |
| [00:59.59] |
And the lights of the corner pubs |
| [01:04.40] |
In a taproom lined with mirrors |
| [01:06.60] |
There's a man there at the bar |
| [01:09.22] |
Reminds you of somebody |
| [01:11.83] |
He says I know who you are |
| [01:16.93] |
He's right, I know I could be him |
| [01:19.58] |
But anyway who is who? |
| [01:22.22] |
You could be looking at |
| [01:22.93] |
What he's looking at |
| [01:24.04] |
And he's looking at you |
| [01:26.06] |
And I'll be out of this place |
| [01:28.27] |
And down the road wherever |
| [01:33.39] |
There but for the grace, etcetera |
| [01:36.28] |
I'll see you later but it's 1979 |
| [01:41.59] |
And I'm picking my way out of here |
| [01:44.10] |
One song at a time |
| [02:09.05] |
The slaving ports of plunder |
| [02:11.23] |
Used to stink to heaven on high |
| [02:14.64] |
Companions of honour |
| [02:16.28] |
Always were in short supply |
| [02:21.51] |
The Bristol ships and Liverpool's |
| [02:24.14] |
On every tide they came |
| [02:26.85] |
The times they may have changed, my friend |
| [02:28.93] |
Some people stay the same |
| [02:31.00] |
And I'll be out of this place |
| [02:32.88] |
And down the road wherever |
| [02:37.91] |
There but for the grace, etcetera |
| [02:40.50] |
I'll see you later but it's 1879 |
| [02:46.36] |
And I'm picking my way out of here |
| [02:49.03] |
One song at a time |
| [03:14.14] |
A grinning mogul greets the crowd |
| [03:16.06] |
At Execution Dock |
| [03:18.81] |
All come to see three mutineers |
| [03:21.02] |
Turned off at twelve o'clock |
| [03:26.27] |
The shyster takes a ringside seat |
| [03:28.90] |
As they're bringing them from the jail |
| [03:31.54] |
And twenty thousand tickets |
| [03:33.23] |
Sold online on premium sale |
| [03:38.69] |
So if you need to reach me |
| [03:40.74] |
You can leave word at The Pig |
| [03:43.78] |
I have no wish to stay around |
| [03:46.30] |
To watch that Newgate jig |
| [03:48.77] |
Or any more poor old fakers |
| [03:50.59] |
Trying to dance in my old shoes |
| [03:53.66] |
I'll be gone over the ocean |
| [03:55.78] |
With the transatlantic blues |
| [03:58.30] |
And I'll be out of this place |
| [03:58.89] |
And down the road wherever |
| [04:05.01] |
There but for the grace, etcetera |
| [04:07.88] |
I'll see you later somewhere down the line |
| [04:13.67] |
I'll be picking my way out of here |
| [04:16.00] |
One song at a time |
