[01:12.610]
[01:13.290]Aye, and what have we got, but the laying of a keel?
[01:16.660]And what have we got, but the cranes above us soaring?
[01:20.290]The commotion and the clamour in the welding of the steel?
[01:23.290]
[01:24.150]What have we got, but the mist upon the river?
[01:26.660]
[01:27.340]Tell me, what have we got, but the noise inside the hold?
[01:30.770]Oh, what have we got, but the arse end of the weather?
[01:34.150]Where we work in horizontal rain, and shiver in the cold.

[01:58.480]
[01:59.290]Aye, what have ye got, but the telling of the fables?
[02:02.470]And the memories of the ships,
[02:03.520]that we've been building donkey's years.
[02:05.270]

[02:23.170]
[02:23.860]Ye may as well die of a Tuesday,
[02:25.610]And woe betide you're late.
[02:26.550]
[02:34.850]What have ye got, all you men what's fit and able?

[02:51.340]
[02:51.970]What have ye got, but this union of the dock?
[02:55.280]
