lirik lagu dave goulder - the day we ran away
well, good evening everybody, i can see you’ve nowt to do
give me your attention and a tale i’ll tell to you!
you’ll never hear the like again ‘til the cow’s come out to play
i want you all to hear about the day we ran away
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
well, i signed my card at 9 o’ clock and i went to find my mate
his gear was on the tender and his billy was on the plate
but if i’d known that it was sidney, i’d have gone back to home to stay, and they could find another stoker for the day we ran away
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
well, we tidied up the engine, and we took her down the yard
i swear the wheels were [?], she rattled us so hard
every joint was blowing steam, i couldn’t see for spray
and sidney got a shovelful when his ~rs~ got in the way
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
oh, we sorted out the wagons, and we got ‘em out on time
we got the green and from the guard, we started down the line
but we hadn’t gone a mile or two when i heard the driver say:
“i don’t think she can hold ‘em, lad, she’s got to run away!”
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
well, the coal fell off my shovel in a heap upon the floor
i told him what i thought of him as i raced him to the door
but the speed that we were going, it took my breath away
for sure as h~ll, if i’da fell, i’d be shoveling there today
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
so i wrestled with the tender brake with all my strength and sk!ll
the wheels stopped a’ turning, and we skated down the hill
sidney put her in reverse, and i began to pray, and the guard was having a baby on the day we ran away
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
and when we came to the junction, i was ready for the shock
she hit the points, we danced about, i hardly dared to look
but sidney saw the signals, they were greenuns all the way
and as we hurtled through the station, well, i knew we’d won the day
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
and when we came to toton, we were jogging along so slow
they shoved us into the sidings, and the fire was nice and low
we fried a’ bacon on the shovel, and tea was on the way
and we sat and blamed the guard, for the day we ran away
[chorus]
oh, the day, the day, they’ll never forget the day
they’ll pension off the pair of us for the day we ran away
