| [00:17.58] |
The lonely streets the tall dark mill |
| [00:20.25] |
It stood a hundred years it's standing still |
| [00:29.43] |
It's stood the snow it's stood the rain |
| [00:36.12] |
And it could stand them all again |
| [00:48.51] |
Woollen town oh woollen town |
| [00:51.33] |
You've been a pillar of economy |
| [01:03.18] |
But now this mill is closing down |
| [01:08.34] |
Many years ago or so they say |
| [01:12.33] |
Seven year old children were working fifteen hours a day |
| [01:19.83] |
And through those years of industrial strife |
| [01:24.60] |
The looms were turning always day and night |
| [01:31.92] |
But never again |
| [01:33.24] |
The lonely streets the tall dark mill |
| [01:37.80] |
It stood a hundred years it's standing still |
| [01:44.31] |
It's stood the snow it's stood the rain |
| [01:50.88] |
And it could stand them all again |
| [01:56.55] |
Woollen town oh woollen town |
| [02:02.52] |
You've been a pillar of economy |
| [02:12.81] |
But now this mill is closing down |
| [02:17.37] |
The lonely streets are dark and bare |
| [02:20.94] |
No children playing no one walks there |
| [02:25.98] |
There's just the mill standing alone |
| [02:33.18] |
Its walls are damp and overgrown |
| [02:38.31] |
Woollen town oh woollen town |
| [02:44.64] |
You've been a pillar of economy |
| [02:50.22] |
But now this mill has closed down |
