[Verse 1]
Any shipyard man can sing when he works upon the hull
Amongst the noise and the clamour that he all but disregards
So he'll sing to himself and no one pays him any mind
He's just another crazy welder in the shipyards
But inside this welder's helmet, if you'll let me demonstrate
When the mask is in position, and the fumes accumulate
There's the finest echo chamber with a sound that can't be beat
Where I'm the king of rock and roll and the world is at me feet
And it may not sound like much to all them jokers on the squad
But inside of here I'm singing with the voice of fucking God
[Chorus]
I'm Jock the singing welder
Heavy metal, rock and roll
Jazz blues, roots reggae
Country, rockabilly, soul
[Bridge]
When I'm singing, well you'd best lock up your daughters and your mothers
I'm Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochrane
I'm the missing Everly Brother
[Chorus]
I'm Jock the singing welder
I'm heading for the heights
I'm Jock the singing welder
And the acetylene lights
Any shipyard man can sing when he works upon the hull
Amongst the noise and the clamour that he all but disregards
So he'll sing to himself and no one pays him any mind
He's just another crazy welder in the shipyards
But inside this welder's helmet, if you'll let me demonstrate
When the mask is in position, and the fumes accumulate
There's the finest echo chamber with a sound that can't be beat
Where I'm the king of rock and roll and the world is at me feet
And it may not sound like much to all them jokers on the squad
But inside of here I'm singing with the voice of fucking God
[Chorus]
I'm Jock the singing welder
Heavy metal, rock and roll
Jazz blues, roots reggae
Country, rockabilly, soul
[Bridge]
When I'm singing, well you'd best lock up your daughters and your mothers
I'm Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochrane
I'm the missing Everly Brother
[Chorus]
I'm Jock the singing welder
I'm heading for the heights
I'm Jock the singing welder
And the acetylene lights
