there is nothing I can say to you now of all the years that pa**ed away with your hands on the plow can't you see that they're gone can't you see that they're gone 20 long years down the line was all that you had to show a trail of coaldust left behind in the rain and the snow you had to lay your body down you had to lay your body down on a homeground you've always talked about the wind and what a friend it could be they'd never hear from you again and though it's hard to believe you had to bring your brother home you had to bring your brother home, oh yeah it was always blood and stone that brought you to her door on a ship so far from home with only love as the law she's all you need to carry on she's all you need to carry on oh, carry on
