gold rush - the men they couldn't hang lyrics
[verse 1]
working on a pipeline
through the guts of a northern sea
someone struck the black stuff
and it could have just been me
i signed on to an oil rig
for a pioneers wage
fishing for our fortune
and pumping up the gauge
[chorus]
but the north sea winds are bitter
and the daylight hours are cruel
still we keep the big drill pumping
out the barrel loads of fuel
[verse 2]
mary and the children
are living down in leeds
the weekly cheque i send them
takes care of all their needs
still i dream of other women
on this island made of men
each week the chopper takes us
down to maria’s den
[chorus]
but the north sea winds are bitter
and the sky is painted grey
and the waves they come in bigger
and the strong men start to pray
[verse 3]
my brother sometimes writes me
he’s living still at home
how he could never be this way
could never bear to roam
but i believe in fortune
and the gold of the frontier
i believe in miracles
and i am staying here
