Donovan Leitch - Gold Watch Blues songtekst

Je score:


I WENT UP FOR MY INTERVIEW ON THE 4TH DAY OF JULY 

THE PERSONNEL MAN HE QUESTIONED ME, UNTIL I NEARLY CRIED 

MADE ME FILL IN FORMS, UNTIL I SHOOK WITH FEAR 

ABOUT THE COLOUR OF MY TOILET ROLL AND IF MY COUSIN'S QUEER. 



HERE'S YOUR GOLD WATCH AND THE SHACKLES FOR YOUR CHAINS 

AND YOUR PIECE OF PAPER, TO SAY YOU LEFT HERE SANE 

AND IF YOU'VE A SON WHO WANTS A GOOD CAREER 

JUST GET HIM TO SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE AND WORK FOR 20 YEARS 



HE ASKED ME HOW MANY JOBS I'D HAD BEFORE 

HE NEARLY HAD A HEART ATTACK WHEN I ANSWERED FOUR 

FOUR JOBS OF 20 YEARS OR MORE, THIS CAN NEVER BE 

WE ONLY TAKE ON MEN, WHO WORK ON UNTIL THEY DIE 



HERE'S YOUR GOLD WATCH AND THE SHACKLES FOR YOUR CHAINS 

AND YOUR PIECE OF PAPER, TO SAY YOU LEFT HERE SANE 

AND IF YOU'VE A SON WHO WANTS A GOOD CAREER 

JUST GET HIM TO SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE AND WORK FOR 20 YEARS 



HE TOOK ME OUTSIDE TO WHERE THE GRAVESTONES STAND IN LINE 

THIS IS WHERE WE BURY THEM, IN QUICKSTONE AND IN LIME 

AND IF YOU'RE GOING TO WORK FOR US, THIS YOU MUST AGREE 

THAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO DIE, PLEASE DO IT DURING TEA – BREAK 



HERE'S YOUR GOLD WATCH AND THE SHACKLES FOR YOUR CHAINS 

AND YOUR PIECE OF PAPER, TO SAY YOU LEFT HERE SANE 

AND IF YOU'VE A SON WHO WANTS A GOOD CAREER 

JUST GET HIM TO SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE AND WORK FOR 20 YEARS 



THIS STORY THAT YOU'VE HEAR, YOU MAY THINK RATHER QUEER 

BUT IT IS THE TRUTH YOU'LL BE SURPRISED TO HEAR 

I DID NOT WANT SOME JOB UP ON THE BOARD 

I JUST WANTED TO TAKE A BROOM AND SWEEP THE BLOODY FLOOR. (CH)
