definitely not 2002,Joe

The song has a working class/middle class/upper class Britain industrial pre war content. It extols the values of the working classes who are prepared to get dirty/risk their lives to rescue workmates (explosion in't mine) or be swept overboard whilst fishing in hazardous conditions and contrast these values with those who live off this wealth/ managers and paper shufflers!

I'll post a verse when the words are to hand, in the time thanks for your attention
