Jock The Singing Welder

[00:00.25] Any shipyard man can sing when he works upon the hull
[00:04.36] Amongst the noise and the clamour that he all but disregards
[00:07.98] So he'll sing to himself and no one pays him any mind
[00:13.22] He's just another crazy welder in the shipyards
[00:16.92] But inside this welder's helmet, if you'll let me demonstrate
[00:21.63] When the mask is in position, and the fumes accumulate
[00:25.28] There's the finest echo chamber with a sound that can't be beat
[00:29.73] Where I'm the king of rock and roll and the world is at me feet
[00:35.20] And it may not sound like much to all them jokers on the squad
[00:38.72] But inside of here I'm singing with the voice of fuckin' god
[00:46.93] I'm Jock the singing welder
[00:48.88] Heavy metal, rock and roll
[00:50.57] Jazz blues, roots reggae
[00:52.35] Country, rockabilly, soul
[00:55.19] When I'm singing
[00:55.43] Well you'd best lock up your daughters and your mothers
[00:59.17] I'm Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochrane
[01:00.96] I'm the missing Everly Brother
[01:02.65] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:04.43] I'm heading for the heights
[01:06.05] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:08.84] And the 'cetylene lights
[01:09.60] Well, I'm more than just a welder
[01:11.46] And I'm telling you my name
[01:14.07] One day you'll see it blazoned
[01:15.91] In the rockin' hall of fame
[01:17.89] I've got these songs in my head
[01:19.65] I've got this dancing in me bones
[01:21.41] I'm Roy Orbison, Elvis Presley
[01:24.13] I'm Tom Fuckin' Jones
[01:25.91] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:28.07] I'm heading for the height
[01:29.69] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:32.19] And the 'cetylene lights
[01:35.09] Prometheus he stole the fire and he brought it down to Earth
[01:38.12] It was a prehistoric welder, who figured out what it was worth
[01:42.93] They called it holy metallurgy and I want it to be clear
[01:47.18] That no man puts asunder, what I've joined together here
[01:50.25] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:53.14] In the belly of the ship
[01:54.00] I've got my shaky leg
[01:55.89] I got my quivering lip
[01:57.72] I'm Jock the singing welder
[01:59.58] And I haven't got a choice
[02:02.45] 'Cause I'm singing all day at the top of my voice
[02:06.12] I'm Jock the singing welder
[02:07.91] And the 'cetylene lights
[02:09.52] There's an empty throne waiting every Saturday night
[02:13.20] There'll be no more mistaking where I've set my sights
[02:16.87] I ain't no pretender 'cause it's mine by rights
[02:21.35] I'm Jock the singing welder and the 'cetylene lights
[02:25.15] Jock the singing welder and the 'cetylene lights
[02:28.91] Jock the singing welder and the 'cetylene lights
[02:32.65] Jock the singing welder and the oxy-acetylene lights
[02:37.96]
