Nail Down The Days |
| You give me something that I just can’t explain |
| I was lost in my childhood feeling lonely |
| I’ll be the big man I’ll be the big noise |
| I’ll be the quare fellow aaah |
| With these flat hand and a mind of my own |
| I was lost in dreams of a different home |
| I’ll be the big man I’ll be the big noise |
| I’ll be the quare fellow aaah |
| On these great shores I was born an immigrant to this city |
| Under the bright lights under the bright lights |
| I can’t be happy 'til it’s understood |
| I’ll make my own way |
| Give me something that I can call my own |
| I nail down the days |
| I nail down the days |
| In this land I was raised to bow down to the man |
| I walked under the steel I walked under the steel |
| Nothing’s changed so I’ll wait and I’ll pray |
| Come now what may |
| Live and work for the best that they’ll pay |
| Nail down the days |
| Nail down the days |
| See me a stranger and I’ll call you a friend |
| You can lead me a lamb to the slaughter |
| I’ll be the big man I’ll be the big noise |
| I’ll be the quare fellow aaah |
| Nothing’s changed so I’ll wait and I’ll pray |
| Come now what may |
| Live and work for the best that they’ll pay |
| Nail down the days |
| Nail down the days |
