"Dan" by Eric Bogle I`m pleased to meet you, my name`s Dan, and I`m an honest working man A tarnished badge, they tell me, but it`s one I wear with pride A fair day`s work for a fair day`s pay, I`ve always lived my life that way But now I can`t help thinking, I`ve been taken for a ride Those hard years on the factory floor, toilin` in the ceaseless roar, that made me old before my time, wrecked my hearing and my health And when I total up the cost, what I`ve gained to what I`ve lost I ask myself now Dan, what`s the total of your wealth? Just how much is your life worth? I live in a house I`ll never own, could never get a housing loan Bank managers and suchlike, don`t rate the likes of me Feeding three kids on a fitter`s wage, I`ve always found it hard to save And being an honest working man don`t count as equity All those years of toil and sweat, climbing in and out of debt I often look back on them and ask myself for what? A rented house on a grimy street An endless fight to make ends meet When you add it all together, it don`t seem like a lot But it`s all that I`ve got But a man`s life can`t be judged alone by what he has or what he owns It`s what he loves and cares for that gives it quality And what gives meaning to my life are my three kids and my wife We`ve always stuck together, always being a family Now my kids are rotting on the dole, holding out the beggar`s bowl I see the anger in their eyes, it cuts me to the heart and shall I simply stand aside while my kids are slowly crucified? Watch all I`ve worked and cared for as it slowly falls apart Well by Christ, I won`t do that I`m pleased to meet you, my name`s Dan, and I`m an honest working man A tarnished badge, they tell me, but it`s one I wear with pride A fair day`s work for a fair day`s pay, I`ve always lived my life that way But now I can`t help thinking, I`ve been taken for a ride And though I ain`t got much to spare, what I have I`m going to share To give my kids and other kids, some purpose, pride, and place And you leeches, grown fat on my sweat, I promise you I won`t forget When I asked you if you`d share the load, you laughed right in my face Yes, you laughed right in my face I`m pleased to meet you, my name`s Dan, and I`m an honest working man
