Mark Knopfler |
| [00:18.39] |
|
| [00:19.89] |
I'm Jeremiah Dixon |
| [00:22.62] |
I am a Geordie boy |
| [00:25.26] |
A glass of wine with you, sir |
| [00:26.91] |
And the ladies I'll enjoy |
| [00:30.98] |
All Durham and Northumberland |
| [00:35.15] |
Is measured up by my own hand |
| [00:40.10] |
It was my fate from birth |
| [00:43.89] |
To make my mark upon the earth... |
| [00:47.91] |
|
| [00:50.61] |
He calls me Charlie Mason |
| [00:52.94] |
A stargazer am I |
| [00:56.16] |
It seems that I was born |
| [00:57.67] |
To chart the evening sky |
| [01:01.42] |
They'd cut me out for baking bread |
| [01:05.62] |
But I had other dreams instead |
| [01:09.90] |
This baker's boy from the west country |
| [01:14.09] |
Would join the Royal Society... |
| [01:17.75] |
|
| [01:20.48] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:26.10] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [01:30.54] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:36.35] |
To draw the line |
| [01:40.19] |
The Mason-Dixon line |
| [01:44.08] |
|
| [02:06.67] |
Now you're a good surveyor, Dixon |
| [02:09.04] |
But I swear you'll make me mad |
| [02:12.19] |
The West will kill us both |
| [02:14.04] |
You gullible Geordie lad |
| [02:18.19] |
You talk of liberty |
| [02:21.85] |
How can America be free |
| [02:26.29] |
A Geordie and a baker's boy |
| [02:30.30] |
In the forest of the Iroquois... |
| [02:33.83] |
|
| [02:36.60] |
Now hold your head up, Mason |
| [02:38.92] |
See America lies there |
| [02:42.53] |
The morning tide has raised |
| [02:44.36] |
The capes of Delaware |
| [02:48.51] |
Come up and feel the sun |
| [02:52.43] |
A new morning is begun |
| [02:56.69] |
Another day will make it clear |
| [03:00.77] |
Why your stars should guide us here... |
| [03:04.17] |
|
| [03:06.99] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:12.83] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [03:17.04] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:22.81] |
To draw the line |
| [03:26.63] |
The Mason-Dixon line |
| [03:35.90] |
