| 作曲 : Mark Knopfler | |
| 作词 : KNOPFLER, MARK | |
| Why aye man | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man | |
| We're the nomad tribes, travelling boys | |
| In the dust and dirt and the racket and the noise | |
| Drills and hammers, diggers and picks | |
| Mixing concrete, laying bricks | |
| There's English, Irish, Scots, the lot | |
| United Nation's what we've got | |
| Brickies, chippies, every trade | |
| German building, british-made | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man | |
| Nae more work on Maggie's farm | |
| Hadaway down the autobahn | |
| Mine's a portacabin bed | |
| Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead | |
| There's plenty deutschmarks here to earn | |
| And German tarts are wundersch | |
| German beer is chemical-free | |
| Germany's alreet with me | |
| Sometimes I miss my river Tyne | |
| But you're my pretty fraulein | |
| Tonight we'll drink the old town dry | |
| Keep wor spirit levels high | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man | |
| Why aye man, why aye, why aye man |
