[00:41.85]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
