Deacon Blue Fourteen Years
Fourteen years on a steam-pack sonny
trying to get the kit off my back
Pushing Shanghai to Liverpool sonny
Pissing in the wind and the flag
You're kipping out in the railway station
Now you've left the navy behind
You're hoping just to ride
Fourteen years of belligerence sonny
Working from Dakar to Belise
Fourteen years of Marine life, baby
Trying to keep a man of your knees
Your kipped out in a railway station
Now you've left the navy behind
You're hoping just to ride
hoping just to ride
hoping just to ride
