[From Mark Knopfler's "Sailing To Philadelphia"]

I Am Jeremiah Dixon
I Am A Geordie Boy
A Glass Of Wine With You, Sir
And The Ladies I'll Enjoy
All Durham And Northumberland
Is Measured Up By My Own Hand
It Was My Fate From Birth
To Make My Mark Upon The Earth...

He Calls Me Charlie Mason
A Stargazer Am I
It Seems That I Was Born
To Chart The Evening Sky
They'd Cut Me Out For Baking Bread
But I Had Other Dreams Instead
This Baker's Boy From The West Country
Would Join The Royal Society...

We Are Sailing To Philadelphia
A World Away From The Coaly Tyne
Sailing To Philadelphia
To Draw The Line
The Mason-Dixon Line

Now You're A Good Surveyor, Dixon
But I Swear You'll Make Me Mad
The West Will Kill Us Both
You Gullible Geordie Lad
You Talk Of Liberty
How Can America Be Free
A Geordie And A Baker's Boy
In The Forests Of The Iroquois...

Now Hold Your Head Up, Mason
See America Lies There
The Morning Tide Has Raised
The Capes Of Delaware
Gome Up And Feel The Sun
A New Morning Is Begun
Another Day Will Make It Clear
Why Your Stars Should Guide Us Here...

We Are Sailing To Philadelphia
A World Away From The Coaly Tyne
Sailing To Philadelphia
To Draw The Line
The Mason-Dixon Line

  • September Grass
    "Well, the sun's not so hot in the sky today
    And you know I can see summertime slipping on away
    A few more geese are gone, a few more leaves turning red
    But the grass is as soft as a feather in a featherbed..."
  • October Road
    "Well I'm-a going back down maybe one more time
    Deep down home, October Road
    And I might like to see that little friend of mine
    That I left behind once upon a time..."
  • On the 4th of July
    "Shall I tell it again how we started as friends
    who would run into one another now and again.
    At the Yippee Cai O or the Mesa Dupree, or a dozen different everyday places to be.
    I was living alone, we were ever so brave on the telephone...."
  • Belfast To Boston

    There are rifles buried in the countryside for the rising of the moon
    May the lie there long forgotten till they rust away into the ground
    Who will bend this ancient hatred, will the killing to an end..."
  • Mean Old Man
    "On my own
    How could I have known?
    Imagine my surprise
    Just a fool..."
  • My Traveling Star
    "Watch my back and light my way
    My traveling star, my traveling star
    Watch over all of those born St. Christopher's Day
    Old road dog, young runaway..."

    "I was raised up family
    Man I'm glad I'm on my own
    I was raised up family
    Man I'm glad I'm on my own..."
  • Carry Me On My Way
    "I forget what to ask for
    There isn't anything I haven't been given
    How could I wish for anything more
    As I am here living in heaven..."
