歌词

[00:12.54] You see these work boots in my hands,
[00:14.36]
[00:15.48] they'll probably fit ye now my son,
[00:17.16]
[00:18.60] Take them, they're a gift from me,
[00:20.91]
[00:21.47] why don't you try them on?
[00:23.16]
[00:24.41] It would do your old man good to see you
[00:27.59] walking in these boots one day,
[00:29.27]
[00:30.64] And take your place among
[00:32.51] the men who work upon the slipway.
[00:35.26]
[00:36.32] These dead man's boots,
[00:38.19] though they're old and curled,
[00:39.62] When a feller needs a job and a place in the world,
[00:42.56] And it's time for a man to put down roots,
[00:45.00]
[00:48.12] And walk to the river in his old man's boots.
[00:50.80]
[00:57.03] He said, "I'm nearly done and asking this,
[00:58.77]
[01:00.15] that ye do one final thing for me!
[01:02.01]
[01:03.32] You're barely but a sapling,
[01:04.76]
[01:05.95] and you think that you're a tree.
[01:07.57]
[01:09.19] If ye need a seed to prosper,
[01:11.07]
[01:12.00] ye must first put down some roots.
[01:13.56]
[01:15.18] Just one foot then the other
[01:17.06]
[01:18.12] in these dead man's boots."
[01:19.55]
[01:21.17] These dead man's boots know
[01:23.18] their way down the hill,
[01:24.41] They could walk there themselves,
[01:25.74] and they probably will.
[01:26.67]
[01:27.35] There's a place for ye there to sink your roots,
[01:29.85]
[01:32.47] And take a walk down the river in these dead man's boots.
[01:35.40]
[01:38.75] I said, "Why in the Hell would I do that?
[01:40.86]
[01:42.18] And why would I agree?"
[01:43.23]
[01:44.85] When his hand was all that I'd received,
[01:46.86] as far as I remember.
[01:49.61]
[01:51.10] It's not as if he'd spoiled me with
[01:53.16]
[01:53.84] his kindness up to then ye see.
[01:55.71]
[01:57.02] I'd a plan of me own and
[01:58.89] I'd quit this place when I came of age September.
[02:01.51]
[02:02.90] These dead man's boots know their way down the hill,
[02:06.20] They can walk there themselves, and they probably will.
[02:08.94] I'd plenty of choices, and plenty other routes,
[02:11.46]
[02:14.58] And he'd never see me walking in these dead man's boots.
[02:17.65]
[02:21.52] What was it made him think
[02:22.89]
[02:23.52] I'd be happy ending up like him?
[02:25.14]
[02:26.82] When he'd hardly got two halfpennies left,
[02:29.06]
[02:29.69] or a broken pot to piss in.
[02:31.69]
[02:33.00] He wanted this same thing for me, was that his final wish?
[02:37.43]
[02:38.99] He said, "What the hell are ye gonna do?"
[02:40.61]
[02:41.73] I said, "Anything but this!"
[02:43.24]
[02:44.85] These dead man's boots know their way down the hill,
[02:48.04] They can walk there themselves and they most likely will.
[02:50.91] But they won't walk with me
[02:52.28] 'cos I'm off the other way,
[02:53.84] I've had it up to here, I'm gonna have my say.
[02:56.21]
[02:56.83] When all ye've got left is that cross on the wall?
[02:59.83] I want nothing from you,
[03:01.20] I want nothing at all.
[03:02.20]
[03:02.76] Not a pension, nor a pittance,
[03:04.64] when your whole life is through,
[03:06.01] Get this through your head,
[03:07.19] I'm nothing like you,
[03:08.26]
[03:08.94] I'm done with all the arguments,
[03:10.69] there'll be no more dispute,
[03:12.12]
[03:15.05] And ye'll die before ye see me in your dead man's boots.
