Sailing To Philadelphia歌词

[00:21.110]I'm Jeremiah Dixon
[00:22.920]
[00:23.850]I am a Geordie boy
[00:25.410]
[00:26.380]A glass of wine with you' sir
[00:28.360]And the ladies I'll enjoy
[00:29.940]
[00:32.060]All Durham and Northumberland
[00:34.070]
[00:35.470]Is measured up by my own hand
[00:38.530]
[00:41.230]It was my fate from birth
[00:43.270]
[00:45.090]To make my mark upon the earth...
[00:47.420]
[00:51.730]He calls me Charlie Mason
[00:53.300]
[00:54.070]A stargazer am I
[00:55.770]
[00:57.030]It seems that I was born
[00:59.260]To chart the evening sky
[01:01.210]
[01:02.330]They'd cut me out for baking bread
[01:04.950]
[01:06.570]But I had other dreams instead
[01:08.710]
[01:10.960]This baker's boy from the west country
[01:13.270]
[01:15.230]Would join the Royal Society...
[01:17.260]
[01:21.580]We are sailing to Philadelphia
[01:24.450]
[01:27.400]A world away from the coaly Tyne
[01:30.860]
[01:31.680]Sailing to Philadelphia
[01:34.330]
[01:37.570]To draw the line
[01:39.340]
[01:41.290]The Mason-Dixon line
[01:44.350]
[02:07.740]Now you're a good surveyor' Dixon
[02:10.110]But I swear you'll make me mad
[02:11.880]
[02:12.650]The West will kill us both
[02:15.040]You gullible Geordie lad
[02:16.320]
[02:19.290]You talk of liberty
[02:20.460]
[02:22.970]How can America be free
[02:25.060]
[02:27.360]A Geordie and a baker's boy
[02:29.750]
[02:31.260]In the forest of the Iroquois...
[02:33.660]
[02:38.030]Now hold your head up' Mason
[02:40.070]See America lies there
[02:42.090]
[02:43.550]The morning tide has raised
[02:45.800]The capes of Delaware
[02:47.070]
[02:49.590]Come up and feel the sun
[02:51.420]
[02:53.750]A new morning is begun
[02:55.310]
[02:57.460]Another day will make it clear
[02:59.590]
[03:01.790]Why your stars should guide us here...
[03:04.130]
[03:08.150]We are sailing to Philadelphia
[03:11.600]
[03:14.000]A world away from the coaly Tyne
[03:16.990]
[03:18.300]Sailing to Philadelphia
[03:21.020]
[03:24.010]To draw the line
[03:25.900]
[03:28.220]The Mason-Dixon line
