I'm Jeremiah Dixon |
| [00:53.40] |
I am a Geordie boy |
| [00:56.66] |
A glass of wine with you, sir |
| [00:59.10] |
And the ladies I'll enjoy |
| [01:02.97] |
All Durham and Northumberland |
| [01:07.16] |
Is measured up by my own hand |
| [01:13.59] |
It was my fate from birth |
| [01:17.34] |
To make my mark upon the earth... |
| [01:24.78] |
He calls me Charlie Mason |
| [01:27.34] |
A stargazer am I |
| [01:30.04] |
It seems that I was born |
| [01:32.97] |
To chart the evening sky |
| [01:37.02] |
They'd cut me out for baking bread |
| [01:41.74] |
But I had other dreams instead |
| [01:46.11] |
This baker's boy from the west country |
| [01:50.61] |
Would join the Royal Society... |
| [01:55.17] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [02:03.42] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [02:08.98] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [02:14.03] |
To draw the line |
| [02:18.22] |
The Mason-Dixon line |
| [02:25.98] |
|
| [02:27.61] |
Now you're good surveyor, a Dixon |
| [02:51.60] |
But I swear you'll make me mad |
| [02:53.92] |
The West will kill us both |
| [02:56.74] |
You gullible Geordie lad |
| [03:00.73] |
You talk of liberty |
| [03:05.79] |
How can America be free |
| [03:09.42] |
A Geordie and a baker's boy |
| [03:14.72] |
In the forest of the Iroquois... |
| [03:19.60] |
Now hold your up, head Mason |
| [03:23.90] |
|
| [03:24.85] |
See America lies there |
| [03:28.40] |
The morning tide has raised |
| [03:30.26] |
The capes of Delaware |
| [03:35.13] |
Come up and feel the sun |
| [03:38.62] |
A new morning is begun |
| [03:43.31] |
Another day will make it clear |
| [03:46.87] |
Why your stars should guide us here... |
| [03:54.80] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [04:00.66] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [04:06.44] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [04:11.11] |
To draw the line |
| [04:15.65] |
The Meson-Dixon line The Meson-Dixon line |
