Chorus:
Craneman, craneman
Careful with your aim, man
High up in the heavens
Hauling from below
Craneman, craneman
Careful with your aim, man
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
Morning, morning
Day comes without warning
Climbing up the ladders
Hauling from below
Helmets, high vis
Way up in your harness
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
Dock crane, dock crane
Sunshine, hail or cold rain
Two thousand tonne of metal
Hauling from below
Millions in machinery
But not a cent will i see
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
Tanker, tanker
Don’t forget your anchor
Line up on the dock side
Hauling from below
Captain shcmaptain
It’s my port that you’re trapped in
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
Cargo, cargo
Still to travel far, so
Grab it with the clamps now
Hauling from below
Dubbo from Sisco
All the way from Pisco
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
Stacked up, packed up
Freight train is all tracked up
A hundred linked containers
Hauling from below
Lights down home bound
Tomorrow is a new round
Winch the freight and then we’ll go
