Camel - Send out the slates
Tekst :
I work for the Union Pike,
out on the Western Line.
I found Uncle Sean in Denver,
and he and his wife are fine.
They send their best,
and like the rest -
they send home the slates.
It took six months from the Cobh,
another six by land,
but the pay is good,
and as I should
I ll send home the slates.
Back on your feet
now lads,
Our time for writing home has passed.
Six miles to spike today,
that s what we need.
So fast lads
we must advance,
Work to the Gandy dance.
Six days to double pay,
that s our reward -
But not til the line goes down.
I ll not send empty letters,
I know you need the rent.
Dad, you deserve a new pair of boots,
I know it s money well spent.
So kind regards,
I ll work hard -
to send home the slates.
PS. Dear Ma,
I send my picture.

Hello mom and dad
What s been goin on
I know it s been a while
Since I ve written home
I like my new job
Sure, I like this town
But I finally got me something to write home about
She s got long blond hair and...
Yeah, Yeah
What you got if you ain t got love
the kind that you just want to give away
its okay to open up
go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it s hard on a rainy day
you want to shut the world out and just be left alone
but don t...
Well I m lying here
Just waiting
For the sun to arrive
To put some light in my eyes
Cause it s a free day
Its a wee day
With no particular place to be
Chorus
So we go and...
Baby Likes To Stay Up Earily,
Baby Likes To Get Up Late
She Likes To Spend My Money,
Never Leaves A Thing On Her Plate

Baby Likes To Steal The Covers
And Tells Me Shes Still Cold

When I Don t Do what I m Told
Don t Like To Do...
