Nae more work on maggie s farm, hadaway down the autobahn
mixing concrete
German beer is chemical-free, keep wor spirit levels high
Travelling boys, diggers and picks, there s english
United nation s what we ve got, keep wor spirit levels high
And humped it all from newcastle to here, british-made Mark, economic refugees
Germany s alreet with me, travelling boys, diggers and picks
But you re my pretty fraulein, we had to leave on the ferry boat, keep wor spirit levels high
Travelling boys, british-made, there s english
United nation s what we ve got, we got wor tools and working gear
Tonight we ll drink the old town dry, germany s alreet with me
Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead, and humped it all from newcastle to here, we re the nomad tribes
mixing concrete
We re the nomad tribes, in the dust and dirt and the racket and the noise, we had to leave on the ferry boat
we had the back of maggie s hand
We had to leave on the ferry boat, united nation s what we ve got Aye, german building
Diggers and picks, we got wor tools and working gear, sometimes i miss my river tyne
Drills and hammers, sometimes i miss my river tyne
Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead, we got wor tools and working gear
Mine s a portacabin bed, we had the back of maggie s hand Aye, tonight we ll drink the old town dry
british-made
sometimes i miss my river tyne
but you re my pretty fraulein
and german tarts are wunderschoen
Diggers and picks, mine s a portacabin bed
But you re my pretty fraulein, we had no way of staying afloat, united nation s what we ve got
Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead, there s plenty deutschmarks here to earn
travelling boys
Hadaway down the autobahn, keep wor spirit levels high Knopfler, travelling boys
British-made, on the run to germany, tonight we ll drink the old town dry
germany s alreet with me
laying bricks
And german tarts are wunderschoen, drills and hammers
Sometimes i miss my river tyne, mine s a portacabin bed, or a bunk in a nissen hut instead
And humped it all from newcastle to here, british-made Why, we had to leave on the ferry boat
sometimes i miss my river tyne
german beer is chemical-free
Or a bunk in a nissen hut instead, or a bunk in a nissen hut instead Mark, but you re my pretty fraulein
British-made, there s english
we re the nomad tribes
On the run to germany, sometimes i miss my river tyne, we had to leave on the ferry boat
German building, or a bunk in a nissen hut instead
On the run to germany, german beer is chemical-free Why, german beer is chemical-free
There s plenty deutschmarks here to earn, mine s a portacabin bed
germany s alreet with me
Economic refugees, mixing concrete
We had no way of staying afloat, and humped it all from newcastle to here Knopfler, we had the back of maggie s hand
german building
and german tarts are wunderschoen
travelling boys
travelling boys
Laying bricks, laying bricks
German building, sometimes i miss my river tyne Aye, german building
On the run to germany, mixing concrete Aye, laying bricks
hadaway down the autobahn
Drills and hammers, times were tough in geordieland Why, german beer is chemical-free
There s english, sometimes i miss my river tyne
Germany s alreet with me, united nation s what we ve got
German beer is chemical-free, we had no way of staying afloat, we re the nomad tribes
