[01:09.18] A room on the top floor
[01:13.80]
[01:14.85] And the chest all but knackered
[01:19.08]
[01:20.80] Two fingers not working
[01:24.70]
[01:26.77] And the back's shot to hell
[01:30.70]
[01:32.68] It's a lifetime of digging trenches
[01:36.61]
[01:38.48] In the cold and wet weather
[01:43.41]
[01:44.71] And for laying half the roadway
[01:47.41] In England as well
[01:50.83]
[01:53.69] You'd finish in the one place
[01:57.57]
[01:59.51] It was straight to the next one
[02:03.84]
[02:05.65] And you never could settle
[02:09.76]
[02:11.43] And you were always alone
[02:14.26]
[02:17.61] Just a drifter in limbo
[02:21.51]
[02:23.54] I was best off away son
[02:27.90]
[02:29.76] Just one of the thousands
[02:32.50] Who could never go home
[02:35.79]
[02:38.71] That's your mighty man son
[02:43.13]
[02:44.75] Your mighty man
[02:47.63]
[02:51.02] Well the boat and the train ride
[02:55.34]
[02:57.04] In a misty November
[03:02.57]
[03:03.17] We had the worst of the lodgings
[03:07.46]
[03:09.15] And we hated the subs
[03:12.73]
[03:15.34] Ma's face on the leaving
[03:20.08]
[03:21.36] I will always remember
[03:25.10]
[03:27.51] And we wouldn't get paid
[03:29.53] Until they had closed up their pubs
[03:34.49]
[04:21.29] And I could stand up on horseback
[04:25.63]
[04:27.32] Was the man for the singing
[04:31.79]
[04:33.11] Put my hand up for boxing
[04:36.87]
[04:38.83] At the fairground on the heath
[04:42.50]
[04:44.74] I could play my accordion
[04:48.31]
[04:50.84] And charm all of the women
[04:54.37]
[04:56.38] And dance round the taproom
[04:59.07] With a chair in my teeth
[05:02.90]
[05:05.40] That's your mighty man son
[05:10.15]
[05:11.01] Your mighty man
[05:14.38]
[05:17.01] That's your mighty man son
[05:22.06]
[05:23.00] Your mighty man
[05:28.01]
