A room on the top floor

And the chest all but knackered

Two fingers not working

And the back’s shot to hell

It’s a lifetime of digging trenches

In the cold and wet weather

And for laying half the roadway

In England as well

You’d finish in the one place

It was straight to the next one

And you never could settle

And you were always alone

Just a drifter in limbo

I was best off away, son

Just one of the thousands
