lirik lagu karine polwart - dignity
[intro]
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
[verse 1]
there’s a man i meet
walks up our street
he’s a worker for the council
has been twenty years
and he takes no lip off n0body
and litter off the gutter
puts it in a bag
and never thinks to mutter
[verse 2]
and he packs his lunch in a sunblest bag
the children call him bogie
he never lets on
but i know ’cause he once told me
he let me know a secret
about the money in his kitty
he’s gonna buy a dinghy
and call her dignity
[chorus]
i’ll sail her up the west coast
through villages and towns
i’ll be on my holidays
and they’ll be doing their rounds
they’ll ask me how i got her
and i’ll say, “i saved my money”
they’ll say, “isn’t she pretty?”
that ship called dignity
[post~chorus]
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
[verse 3]
i’m telling this story
in a faraway scene
sipping down raki
and reading maynard keynes
and i am thinking about home
and all that it means
and a place in the winter
for dignity
[chorus]
i’ll sail her up the west coast
through villages and towns
i’ll be on my holidays
and they’ll be doing their rounds
they’ll ask me how i got her
and i’ll say, “i saved my money”
they’ll say, “isn’t she pretty?”
that ship called dignity
[post~chorus]
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo
[bridge]
set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up
set it up again, set it up again, set it up again
set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up, set it up
set it up again, set it up again, set it up again
and i’m thinking about home (set it up, set it up, set it up)
(set it up, set it up, set it up)
i’m thinking about work (set it up again, set it up again, set it up again)
and i’m thinking about faith (set it up, set it up, set it up)
(set it up, set it up, set it up)
oh, how (set it up again, set it up again, set it up again)
and i am thinking how good it would be
to be here one day
on that ship, on that ship called dignity
on that ship called dignity
on that ship called dignity
that ship called dignity, yeah
