Ally – A Man Called Dignity

There’s a man I see, a lot on TV
He works for the blue noses, has been twenty years
And he takes no criticism off nobody, not even the press within the gutter
Pats them on the back and promises to call them after

And he packs his lunch in a large bin-bag, the media call him Ally
He never lets on but I know ’cause he once told me
He let me know a secret about the millions in his kitty
He’s gonna get a new name… Ally….Dignity

And he hangs around the west coast, through staunch villages and towns
He’ll be on his holidays, they’ll be buying his rounds
They’ll ask him how he got here, he’ll say, “I spent your money”
They’ll say, “Isn’t he loyal, that man Ally….Dignity?”

And I’m telling this story in an Ibrox scene
Sipping down Buckie and reading the RST
And I’m thinking about money and all that means
And 1p shares in the winter for Ally…Dignity

And he hangs around the west coast, through staunch villages and towns
He’ll be on his holidays, they’ll be buying his rounds
They’ll ask him how he got here, he’ll say, “I spent your money”
They’ll say, “Isn’t he loyal, that man Ally….Dignity?”

Pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up
Yeah, pay me up again, pay me up again, pay me up again, pay me up again
Pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up, pay me up
Yeah, pay me up again, pay me up again, pay me up again, pay me up again

And I’m thinking about resigning and I’m thinking about money
And I’m thinking about work and I’m thinking, how good it would be
To be here some day with a man called Ally…Dignity
A man called Ally Dignity, that man
