Mark Knopfler - Silvertown Blues слова песни
On Silvertown Way, the cranes stand high
Quiet and gray against the still of the sky
They won`t quit and lay down though the action has died
They watch the new game in town on the Blackwall side
From the poisinous drains a vision appears
New circle of cranes, a new reason to be here
A big silver dome rising up into the dawn
Above the church and the homes were all the silver is gone
If I`d a bucket of gold, what would I do
I`d leave the story untold Silvertown blues
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
A silver dawn steals over the docks
A truck with no weels up on cinderblocks
Men with no dreams around a fire in a drum
Scrap metal schemes are rusted over and done
If I`d a bucket of gold, silver would do
I`d leave the story untold Silvertown blues
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
When you`re standing on thin and dangerous ice
You can knock and walk in for citizens` advice
They`ll tell you the where you can turn, where you can go
There`s nothing they can tell me I don`t already know
If I`d a bucket of gold, silver would do
I`d leave the story untold Silvertown blues
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
From the Caning Town train I see a billboard high
There`s a big silverplane raising up into the sky
And I can make out the words `seven flights every day`
Says six of those birds are bound for JFK
If I`d a bucket of gold, silver would do
I`d leave the story untold Silvertown blues
And I`m going down in Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
Going down Silvertown
Down in Silverdown
