Track Name: Tougher Than A Soldier's Boots: TOUGHER THAN A SOLDIER’S BOOTS

GET YOUR BOOTS ON
AND COME DANCE WITH US
RUBBING SALT INTO THE WOUND
BRING YOUR PLACARDS AND COME DANCE WITH US
PARTY AT THE FUNERALS

OH IT’S ALL SO SIMPLE
YOU’VE JUST GOT TO FOLLOW THE RULES
OH IT’S ALL SO SIMPLE
JUST SLIP ON YOUR SUNDAY SHOES

DON’T LOOK UP NOW
BECAUSE GOD IS VENGEFUL
AND GOD HE’S GOT HIS SIGHTS ON YOU
DON’T LOOK UP NOW THE LORD IS VENGEFUL AND
GOD HE’S GOT HIS SIGHTS ON YOU

AND YOU WAIT ON THE FLIPSIDE YEAH YOU’LL SEE IT’S TRUE
IT’S JUST US AND WE’LL LAUGH AT THE REST OF YOU
OH I’M SO EXCITED THAT I CAN’T SLEEP
AND WHEN I WAKE I’VE GOT SO MUCH WORK TO DO
I REJOICE WHEN I TURN ON THE NEWS
AND OH I’M SO EXCITED THAT I CAN’T SLEEP

GET YOUR BOOTS ON
AND COME DANCE WITH US
RUBBING SALT INTO THE WOUND
BRING YOUR PLACARDS AND COME DANCE WITH US
PARTY AT THE FUNERALS
AND OH YOU CAN’T CHANGE ME
I’VE GOT SO MUCH WORK TO DO
AND OH YOU CAN’T CHANGE ME
I’M TOUGHER THAN A SOLDIER’S BOOTS
Track Name: Dunkirk: DUNKIRK

THE ORDERS GO: STRONG SWIMMERS STRIP OUT OF YOUR CLOTHES
WEAK SWIMMERS WADE TO THE CLOSE BOATS
MINESWEEPERS FOR ALL YOU REST

A DEFEAT THE BRITISH ARMY IN RETREAT
SHARING SIPS OF WHISKY
SAILING BACK HOME
Track Name: The Joint World Record Holders: THE JOINT WORLD RECORD HOLDERS

’71 DAVE’S SUMMER SHETLAND JOB
WE’LL DRIVE TO PRESTON TO DROP HIM OFF
BUT WHEN THEY GET THERE IT’S NOT NORTH ENOUGH
SO TO CARLISLE THEN WE’LL STOP

AND THE PATHS LAID FOR A MILLION ADVENTURES
MANY YEARS FROM NOW
THE BOOT FULL THE JOINT WORLD RECORD HOLDERS FOR THE MOST DAYS OUT

NORTH OF THE BORDER WAS JUST THE START
LET’S GO FURTHER WE’VE GONE THIS FAR
LOOK AT HOW BEAUTIFUL THE SOUTHERN UPLANDS ARE
THE FAMILY SLEEPING IN THE CAR

AND THEY’D WAKE UP TO A BREAKFAST THEY’D REMEMBER
MANY YEARS FROM NOW
THE BOOT FULL THE JOINT WORLD RECORD HOLDERS FOR THE MOST DAYS OUT
