(Kilvington / Greaves)
He picks up the pieces
Of long gone days
Of old fashioned people
And old fashioned ways
He picks up the pieces
Where nothing remains
And puts them away
'Til they're wanted again
One for the memory
One for the road
One man's rubbish
Is another man's gold
He likes Hank Snow
And Roy Orbison tunes
He drinks whisky all night
And he howls at the moon
He sits by the Humber
When days abate
And thinks about the things
That the world throws away
One for the memory
One for the road
One man's rubbish
Is another man's gold
I'm thinking of a girl
And the old river cries
As she's standing on the bridge
Of a barge going by
I swear she waved at me
Big ol' tears in her eyes
And they're taking the coal to Newcastle
One for the memory
One for the road
One man's rubbish
Is another man's gold
One for the memory
One for the road
One man's rubbish
Is another man's gold
The Beautiful South is a British pop band active from 1989 to 2007. Founded by Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway, former members of the Housemartins, the group achieved great success in the 1990s with a sound characterized by catchy melodies, ironic and sarcastic lyrics, and a vein of melancholy. In addition to Heaton and Hemingway, the lineup included Sean Welch (bass), Dave Stead (drums) and Dave Rotheray (guitar). Among the group's most famous songs are "A Little Time", "Don't Marry Her" and "Old Red Eyes Is Back". The Beautiful South released nine studio albums, including their debut "Welcome to the Beautiful South" (1989) and the successful album "Quench" (1994).

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
