[00:20.42] |
Hope everybody's ringing on their own bell this fine morning |
[00:26.34] |
Hope everyone's connected to that long distance phone |
[00:31.90] |
Old man he's a mountain |
[00:34.77] |
Old man he's an island |
[00:37.71] |
Old man he's a-waking says |
[00:40.05] |
"I'm going to call, call all my children home" |
[00:44.77] |
|
[00:55.28] |
Hope everybody's dancing to their own drum this fine morning |
[01:01.29] |
The beat of distant Africa or a Polish factory town |
[01:06.40] |
Old man he's calling for his supper |
[01:10.24] |
Is calling for his whisky |
[01:12.42] |
Calling for his sons and daughters, yeah |
[01:15.15] |
Calling, calling all his children round |
[01:19.84] |
|
[01:42.15] |
Sharp ears are tuned in to the drones and chanters warming |
[01:47.96] |
Mist blowing round some headland, somewhere in your memory |
[01:53.90] |
Everyone is from somewhere |
[01:56.87] |
Even if you've never been there |
[01:59.65] |
So take a minute to remember the part of you |
[02:03.00] |
That might be the old man calling me |
[02:06.65] |
|
[02:23.25] |
How many wars you fighting out there this winter's morning? |
[02:29.07] |
Maybe there's always time for another christmas song |
[02:34.78] |
Old man is asleep now |
[02:37.74] |
Got appointments to keep now |
[02:40.59] |
Dreaming of his sons and daughters, and proving |
[02:45.35] |
Proving that the blood is strong |
[02:50.34] |
