Testo Deeside

Hey now!The iron gates clang in a steel mill townA man breaks down to that unemployment soundHe takes a last walk down that old coast roadIn the dying death throes of all that he knowsThe sight of those men walking through the gatesWas like a lame pit pony at the end of its days(Fire, Fire, Fire)In a Deeside town eight thousand went downIn a February day in the driving rainNo winners just losers and cuts and bruisesAs the picket lines fell, the industry diedThere's still one question after all this timeIs a working man bom to live and then die?Fire Fire Fire.To build the ships to set the sailsTo cross the sea of foolsTo be dealt the cardsTo play our handTo win or else to loseIn this cruel world that kicks a man when he's down(Down to the ground)(Hey now)And Lady Luck smiles on the few in this worldAnd I hope and I pray that she smiles on youI ain't gonna preach, no I ain't gonna teachI 'm just gonna sing about the things that I needA little bit of love, a little bit of hopeA little bit of strength, some fuel for the fire(Fire Fire Fire)To build the ships to set the sailsTo cross the sea of foolsTo be dealt the cardsTo play our handTo win or else to loseIn this cruel world that kicks a man when he's down.(Down to the ground)A little bit of love, a little bit of hopeA little bit of strength, some fuel for the fire(Fire Fire Fire)To build the ships to set the sailsTo cross the sea of foolsTo be dealt the cardsTo play our handTo win or else to loseIn this cruel world that kicks a man when he's down.
