[00:43.12]Everyone has had a father
[00:47.61]But my father had a brother too
[00:53.67]Brother who wouldn't do the things
[00:58.85]You hope a brother'd do
[01:04.19]A brother who wouldn't work the land
[01:09.30]Just ran around all day
[01:14.97]And fell down drunken every night
[01:19.93]Not taking time to pray
[01:25.10]Not taking time to pray
[01:31.48]
[01:32.93]But I never knew the truth
[01:38.15]Of my poor father's brother
[01:43.28]They said my father's brother
[01:47.38]He went out to sea and drowned
[01:53.45]We seldom spoke
[01:58.94]Of my poor father's brother
[02:04.11]My father, he went through that once
[02:08.91]Now he wants to walk around
[02:14.50]He wants to walk around
[02:20.82]
[02:26.90]Oh, but I am not my father
[02:31.90]Nor his brother, nor my brother, no
[02:37.20]I am something the likes of which
[02:41.98]Such men have never known
[02:47.06]Oh, and I will neither forgive
[02:51.41]Nor forget the awful day
[02:56.89]That they came and killed our children
[03:01.30]And they took our land away
[03:07.34]They took our land away
[03:11.95]
[03:14.18]But on the other side
[03:18.85]My radiant lady's waiting
[03:23.61]With a beaconing light
[03:27.85]Shining from her open hand
[03:32.43]Oh, on the other side
[03:37.91]My whole life's a-waiting
[03:42.00]In her glimmering eye
[03:46.53]I'll be another man
[03:51.92]
