|
In the northem towns |
|
The boys have all gone away |
|
Trying to find work down south |
|
And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow |
|
Won't someone have mercy on my soul |
|
On my soul, soul, soul |
|
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound |
|
In a valley that once sang out sang proud |
|
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground |
|
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town |
|
Now i've seen the future |
|
And i've seen the past |
|
And i've seen the lights go down |
|
On this world fading fast |
|
And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow |
|
Won't someone have mercy on my soul |
|
On my soul, soul, soul |
|
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound |
|
In a valley that once sang out sang proud |
|
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground |
|
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town |
|
And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow |
|
Won't someone have mercy on my soul |
|
On my soul, soul, soul |
|
Hallowed ground how sad is the sound |
|
In a valley that once sang out sang proud |
|
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground |
|
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town |
|
Now i've got a wife and a young child |
|
Back home in my house |
|
Oh i've got someone |
|
I've got to take care of somehow |
