lirik lagu norman castle - grass seeds in the cider
[verse]
when i came down to somerset in 1943
my name was billy james, but i was called ‘evacuee’
they mocked my c~ckney rhyming slang, despised my city drawl
but come the winter i was like a brother to them all
[chorus]
grass seeds in the cider; endless summer haze
running through the meadows and rolling in the hay
i learnt the local accent, and their time~fast country ways
i travelled west and stayed here all my days
[verse]
miles and miles of empty skies, no planes or bombs to fear
ginger beer and rationing; and grey wartime veneer
sunny summer afternoons spent climbing up the batch
and freezing cold autumnal nights beneath a roof of thatch
[chorus]
grass seeds in the cider; endless summer haze
running through the meadows and rolling in the hay
i learnt the local accent, and their time~fast country ways
i travelled west and stayed here all my days
[bridge]
miles and miles of empty skies, no planes or bombs to fear
ginger beer and rationing; and grey wartime; grey wartime veneer
[verse]
i found myself a country girl, and raised a healthy brood
and spent my lifetime working where the mendip breezes blew
and when i’m gone, my epitaph in stone for all to see
“here lies billy james. he was the last evacuee”
[chorus]
grass seeds in the cider; endless summer haze
running through the meadows and rolling in the hay
i learnt the local accent, and their time~fast country ways
i travelled west and stayed here all my days
