Lyric Hallowed Ground
Well the docks lie crippled
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
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
