We are sailing to philadelphia

I am jeremiah dixon I am a geordie boy A glass of wine with you, sir
And the ladies I’ll enjoy All durham and northumberland
Is measured up by my own hand It was my fate from birth
To make my mark upon the earth...
He calls me charlie mason A stargazer am i
It seems that I was born To chart the evening sky
They’d cut me out for baking bread But I had other dreams instead
This baker’s boy from the west country
Would join the royal society...
[written by Mark Knopfler]
