- Mark Knopfler, My Claim to Fame, Lyrics:
Well, he's a big star now, But I've been a fan of his for years.
The way he sings and plays the guitar still brings me to tears
I wouldn't want to be a big deal, I wouldn't want to be a celebrity.
I spend my life building ships of steel, That's all there ever was for me
Take a hammer to the sea belles And shout my name,
And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze. That's my claim to fame
He spends his life in the studio, Jet planes and big black cars.
Plays records on the radio In all of the clubs and in all of the bars
By day, he didn't have a choice. You had to take a trade.
You had no money and you had no voice. That's the life I made:
Take a hammer to the sea belles And shout my name,
And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze, That's my claim to fame
That's my claim to fame, boys, That's my claim to fame.
To sail the seas as free as a breeze, That's my claim to fame
Well, a song can live forever and a day; An old ship goes to the breaker yard
In a hundred years; you're gonna hear him play,
They won't remember me for working hard
Now, they've all gone away, all the boys and the girls
The yard is a grave where the river runs through;
We used to build ships for the whole wide world.
Now, we couldn't do it if we wanted to
Take a hammer to the sea belles And shout my name;
I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze. That's my claim to fame
Take a hammer to the sea-belles And shout my name
I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze That's my claim to fame
That's my claim to fame, boys, That's my claim to fame:
To sail the seas as free as a breeze, That's my claim to fame
