QE2 (The Q4) - The Ballad of the Q4(Cover) by Matt McGinn
0
A song by Matt McGinn recognising the rise and fall of shipbuilding on the River Clyde, Glasgow, Scotland. (Link to Matt McGinn site: http://www.mattmcginn.info/ )
In particular to the workers and the Great vessels that they built like the Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth I and QE2 (the Q4!). To the memory of my grandfather who died because of his work on these ships built so that the rich may sail the silver seas.
LYRICS:
BALLAD OF THE Q4 BY MATT MCGINN
The Mary and the Lizzie they were made right here
But you'll never see the likes of them I fear
They were the finest on the silver sea
They were built by the hands of men like me
Chorus
Thank you, Dad, for all your skill
But the Clyde is a river that'll no stand still
You did gey well, but we'll do more
Make way for the finest of them all, Q4
We have an order we'll fulfil
With a touch o' the master and a bit more skill
Now the backroom boys are under way
And the pens will be rolling till the launching day
There's Tam O'Hara with his burning gear
The plumber and the plater and the engineer
There's young Willie Wylie with his welding rod
They're waiting at the ready for the backroom nod
We'll burn and cut and shape and bend
We'll be welding and riveting and in the end
When the painter's dabbed his final coat
We'll be launching the finest ever ship afloat
We've worked and sweated and toiled and now
See the expert's hand from stern to bow
She's ready for the torments o' the sea
She's a credit to the Clyde and me
