maura o'connell - shipbuilding lyrics

shipbuilding lyrics
[verse 1]
is it worth it?
a new winter coat and shoes for the wife
and a bicycle on the boy’s birthday
it’s just a rumor that was spread around town
by the women and children
soon we’ll be shipbuilding

[verse 2]
well i ask you
boy said, “dad they’re gonna take me to task
but i’ll be back by christmas”
it’s just a rumor that was spread around town (oh, it’s just a rumor)
somebody said the people get k!lled in
(somebody said, somebody said)
the result of this shipbuilding

[chorus]
with all the will in the world
diving for real life
when we could be diving for pearls

[verse 3]
(whoa, it’s just a rumor)
it’s just a rumor that was spread around town (spread around town)
a telegram or a picturе postcard
within weeks they’ll be reopеning the shipyard
and notifying the next of kin
once again
it’s all we’re sk!lled in
we will be shipbuilding
[chorus]
with all the will in the world
diving for dear life
when we could be diving for pearls
when we should be diving for pearls
