lirik lagu tom jenkins (wales) - when the coal dust settled
[intro]
one, two, three, four
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh
[verse 1]
my father’s broken horse is pulling funeral carts
with that money gonna make a new start
tenants to landlords, all of their life
saving a part for a place of their own
[chorus]
my old man told me “push a pen not a shovel,”
“head up high, keep yourself out of trouble”
but here we stand in a land with the soil in our hands
in our hands
[verse 2]
my forefathers spent half their life down a mine
worked in a world where the sun don’t shine
those boys will keep on digging until the devil’s door
they were all for each other, and onе for all
[chorus]
my grandfather died when thе coal dust settled
deep in his lungs where his heart once rattled
for the love of the land and the dirt in his hands
[verse 3]
mary worked hard on the old factory line
a slave to the bottle, always showed up on time
and when they eventually shut those factory doors
they marched through the valley on a lost cause
[chorus]
governments were branded cold hard liars
the stories sang through the male voice choirs
for the love of the land and their heart in their hands
[outro]
my old man told me “push a pen, not a shovel”
“head up high, keep yourself out of trouble”
but here we stand on a land with the soil in our hands
my grandfather died when the coal dust settled
deep in his lungs where his heart once rattled
for the love of the land and his heart in his hands
