Salford Quays swing bridge by night,
Yeah the quays,
There’s not many trees,
Lots of water surrounds you,
Old docks of the past,
Turned into a haven,
Of leisure for your pleasure,
The BBC stands on the right,
that shines a light
Of broadcasting power,
Every hour,
Even in a shower,
But don’t glower,
There’s a swing bridge,
That leads you to the other bank,
And we can thank ITV,
cos Coronation Street is on the other side,
Shinin a beacon of light,
Stories to tell
Of a Mancunian and Salford way of life,
Of trouble and strife,
People have got a life,
So as we look on this Salford scene,
We can dream,
Of a better way of life,
Yeah, Salford Quays swing bridge by night,
It’s alright
On a summers night
