History

from Ride by Rory Ellis

lyrics

YOU WERE THE SON OF A UNION MAN,
AND THIS BASTARD SON YEAH HE WAS A DRINKING MAN.
WHOSE ONLY SON, IS SITTING IN THE CORNER
FINDING ANSWERS IN A SONG.
I AM THE SON OF THE DRINKING MAN.

YOU RAISED THE RIGHTS OF THE WORKING MAN,
DAD HE LOST HIS SIGHT, HE DIDN’T WANT TO BE A FAMILY MAN. NOW HIS ONLY SON, IS TRAPPED WITHIN A WORLD OF BEING
THE ONLY ONE

WHOSE MAKING HISTORY
LATELY I FOUND OUT, I’M MAKING HISTORY
EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY, WERE ALL MAKING HISTORY.

NO QUESTIONS, NO REGRETS,
NO SORROW, TIME FORGETS.

I AM THE SON OF A DRINKING MAN,
I PROMISED MUM, I’D BE A THINKING MAN.
WHEN IT’S SAID AND DONE, I’LL BE SITTING IN THIS CORNER WRITING LETTERS FOR THE GRAVE.

I’LL BE MAKING HISTORY,
LATELY I FOUND OUT, I’M MAKING HISTORY.
EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY, WERE ALL MAKING HISTORY.
