Roll On Lyrics

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Roll on, roll on
Roll on, roll on
Roll on, roll on
Roll on, roll onWe'll roll on with our heads held high
Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the sky
We'll roll on with our heads held high
Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the skyThe ship yards are deserted on the docks on Melbourne town
The wharfies standing strong
They gathered round to see what the union had to say
There's too much work and not enough pay, sayWe'll roll on with our heads held high

Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the sky
We'll roll on with our heads held high
Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the skyWe'll protest in peace, keep the whole thing quiet
The last thing needed is a wage-fueled riot
'Coz they don't really care, they're always standing there
Running from the outside, from the outside
Running from the outside worldDo you really care? Why are you standing there?
Filming for the outside world
Do you really care? Why are you standing there?
Filming for the outside worldFive weeks had passed when the union made it clear
Spirits slowly faded and the end was getting near
You see you're all expendable when all is said and done
You'll go back to work tomorrow, meet your new replacement sonRoll on
Roll on
Roll onWe'll roll on with our heads held high
Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the sky
We'll roll on with our heads held high
Our conscience in the gutter, our dreams up in the skyRoll on
Roll on
Roll on
