Текст песни: Janey Mac I'm Nearly Forty + перевод

Well, I’ve been sing most my lifetime

Of Rockall, strong men an' Botany Bay

Singing songs of love and hope and freedom

While time had slowly slipped away

Have you noticed the policemen getting younger?

And the bus men, they’re getting younger too

While all my friends are getting older

I have stayed the same, you know it’s true

And Janey Mac, I’m nearly forty

I think my hair is turning grey

I’ll be on the pension very shortly

And how I long for yesterday

We’re so long together, it’s a record

We should be in the Guinness book of fame

For twenty-five long years we’ve been together

And just for spite, we’ll do the same again

But there’s silver threads in Tommy’s whiskers

And Derek with the beard, he’s getting bald

While though he’s getting kind of grumpy

While I am just not getting old

And Janey Mac, I’m nearly forty

I think my hair is turning grey

I’ll be on the pension very shortly

And how I long for yesterday

So all you knockers and begrudgers

You will admit we have that touch of class

If not we’d send you our new record

And you can stick it up your — jumper!

And Janey Mac, I’m nearly forty

I think my hair is turning grey

I’ll be on the pension very shortly

And how I long for yesterday
