• Black Gold (Pub Classics, Vol. 2, 2014)

There's good money, don't you fear,
Said the man down by the pier,
For the sea is alive and it's calling;
Won't you chase the new black gold,
Where once the herring shoaled,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

Where the North Sea wind is blowing,
And the day is a lifetime too long;
Where we drill, sweat and toil to take the ocean's oil,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

There are men from Scapa Flow,
And the kid from Sandy Row,
SEDCO men who look all spiff and sparkle;
On a money spending binge,
Joy riding on the rigs,
And you'll chase the new black gold without your gargle.

Where the North Sea wind is blowing,
And the day is a lifetime too long;
Where we drill, sweat and toil to take the ocean's oil,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

There's twelve hour shifts to do,
Playing nurse mate to the crew,
There's a loneliness and fear in empty oceans;
From the Shetlands to the Kesh,
They're chasing oil instead of fish,
For black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

Where the North Sea wind is blowing,
And the day is a lifetime too long;
Where we drill, sweat and toil to take the ocean's oil,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

For the rig's me second home,
Sitting pretty o'er the foam,
A way of life that's new to every nation;
And there's a hundred extra quid,
To go diving with the squid,
For black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

Where the North Sea wind is blowing,
And the day is a lifetime too long;
Where we drill, sweat and toil to take the ocean's oil,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.

Where the North Sea wind is blowing,
And the day is a lifetime too long;
Where we drill, sweat and toil to take the ocean's oil,
There's black gold in the deep waters, Johnny.
