What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Is it worth it?
2
A new winter coat and shoes for the wife
3
And a bycicle on the boy's birthday
4
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
5
By the women and children
6
Soon we'll be shipbuilding
7
Well I ask you
8
The boy said Dad they're going to take me to task
9
But I'll back by Christmas
10
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
11
Somebody said that someone got filled in
12
For saying that people that killed in
13
The result of the shipbuilding
14
With all the will in the world
15
Diving for dear life
16
When we could be diving for pearls
17
It's just a rumour that was spread around town
18
A telegram or a picture postcard
19
Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyard
20
And notifying the next of kin once again
21
It's all we're skilled in
22
We will be shipbuilding
23
With all the will in the world
24
Diving for dear life
25
When we could be diving for pearls
