Mark Knopfler |

|
| [00:21.71] |
I'm Jeremiah Dixon |
| [00:23.52] |
|
| [00:24.45] |
I am a Geordie boy |
| [00:26.01] |
|
| [00:26.98] |
A glass of wine with you' sir |
| [00:28.96] |
And the ladies I'll enjoy |
| [00:30.54] |
|
| [00:32.66] |
All Durham and Northumberland |
| [00:34.67] |
|
| [00:36.07] |
Is measured up by my own hand |
| [00:39.13] |
|
| [00:41.83] |
It was my fate from birth |
| [00:43.87] |
|
| [00:45.69] |
To make my mark upon the earth... |
| [00:48.02] |
|
| [00:52.33] |
He calls me Charlie Mason |
| [00:53.90] |
|
| [00:54.67] |
A stargazer am I |
| [00:56.37] |
|
| [00:57.63] |
It seems that I was born |
| [00:59.86] |
To chart the evening sky |
| [01:01.81] |
|
| [01:02.93] |
They'd cut me out for baking bread |
| [01:05.55] |
|
| [01:07.17] |
But I had other dreams instead |
| [01:09.31] |
|
| [01:11.56] |
This baker's boy from the west country |
| [01:13.87] |
|
| [01:15.83] |
Would join the Royal Society... |
| [01:17.86] |
|
| [01:22.18] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:25.05] |
|
| [01:28.00] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [01:31.46] |
|
| [01:32.28] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [01:34.93] |
|
| [01:38.17] |
To draw the line |
| [01:39.94] |
|
| [01:41.89] |
The Mason-Dixon line |
| [01:44.95] |
|
| [02:08.34] |
Now you're a good surveyor' Dixon |
| [02:10.71] |
But I swear you'll make me mad |
| [02:12.48] |
|
| [02:13.25] |
The West will kill us both |
| [02:15.64] |
You gullible Geordie lad |
| [02:16.92] |
|
| [02:19.89] |
You talk of liberty |
| [02:21.06] |
|
| [02:23.57] |
How can America be free |
| [02:25.66] |
|
| [02:27.96] |
A Geordie and a baker's boy |
| [02:30.35] |
|
| [02:31.86] |
In the forest of the Iroquois... |
| [02:34.26] |
|
| [02:38.63] |
Now hold your head up' Mason |
| [02:40.67] |
See America lies there |
| [02:42.69] |
|
| [02:44.15] |
The morning tide has raised |
| [02:46.40] |
The capes of Delaware |
| [02:47.67] |
|
| [02:50.19] |
Come up and feel the sun |
| [02:52.02] |
|
| [02:54.35] |
A new morning is begun |
| [02:55.91] |
|
| [02:58.06] |
Another day will make it clear |
| [03:00.19] |
|
| [03:02.39] |
Why your stars should guide us here... |
| [03:04.73] |
|
| [03:08.75] |
We are sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:12.20] |
|
| [03:14.60] |
A world away from the coaly Tyne |
| [03:17.59] |
|
| [03:18.90] |
Sailing to Philadelphia |
| [03:21.62] |
