[00:00.00]	作词 : Broudie
[00:03.23]
[00:44.08]	Fourteen hours of working shifts
[00:46.51]	In early morning mersey mists
[00:49.22]	Too tired to taste
[00:50.66]	The cornflakes on your tongue
[00:52.54]
[00:54.86]	As morning hits the docks
[00:56.61]	You dream of all the ships there must have been
[00:59.66]
[01:00.31]	A river full of everything that it's not
[01:03.31]
[01:07.26]	And if your life's not meant to feel like this
[01:12.58]
[01:18.13]	Maybe it's time for someone to resist
[01:23.60]
[01:27.50]	The riverbank could tell you tales
[01:30.34]	Of working lives ship with sails
[01:33.11]	Jobs were passed from fathers to their sons
[01:36.32]
[01:38.40]	Sometimes it comes down to you
[01:41.17]	The many to protect the few
[01:43.88]	Unless you cross the line your jobs are gone
[01:47.11]
[01:50.71]	If it takes a thousand days we'll never stop
[01:56.10]
[02:01.46]	Tell it a thousand ways you'll still be wrong
[02:07.03]
[02:12.41]	Not a word in the morning paper
[02:16.39]
[02:17.73]	Feels like we've been out for ages
[02:22.02]
[02:23.38]	Maybe unions and players won't save us
[02:27.23]
[02:28.81]	But there's nothing on earth can break us
[02:32.68]
[02:43.87]	The strength to load a thousand ships
[02:46.51]	But willing hands can turn to fists
[02:49.23]	On picket lines feelings overflow
[02:52.61]
[02:54.76]	A decent job for decent pay
[02:57.54]	To fight if that's the only way
[02:59.64]
[03:00.25]	The union says well tough you're on your own
[03:03.39]
[03:07.07]	If it takes a thousand days we'll never stop
[03:12.50]
[03:18.04]	Tell it a thousand ways you'll still be wrong
[03:23.26]
[03:28.77]	Not a word in the morning papers
[03:33.17]
[03:34.09]	Feels like we've been out for ages
[03:38.38]
[03:39.70]	The unions and prayers won't save us
[03:43.61]
[03:45.38]	There's nothing on earth can break us
