Hello My Old Friend |
| Early morning day is dawning |
| Cooling towers and factory gates |
| Dirty streets and laughing people |
| Skinny dogs and beer crates |
| Hello my old friend |
| Hello my old friend |
| Sad canals green black water |
| Somewhere bicycles and beds |
| Wet and windy afternoons |
| And pigeons coo in garden sheds |
| Hello my old friend |
| Hello my old friend |
| High-rise tower blocks with panoramic |
| Views of trains and coal |
| Tiehead railway tracks tread faithfully |
| The gas works to behold |
| Hello my old friend |
| Hello my old friend |
| Just to see the sunset |
| Pretty rainbows over your majestic towers |
| To feel your earth beneath my feet |
| Here I could stand for hours and hours |
| (young girls sing fara jacka in the background) |
| Big machines that once were champions |
| Turn to dust under the sky |
| Broken windows choking chimneys |
| Factory walls for miles and miles |
| By bye my old friend |
| By bye my old friend |
| Just to see the sunset |
| Pretty rainbows over your majestic towers |
| To feel your earth beneath my feet |
| Here I could stand for hours and hours |
