Şarkı Sözü
Leaving my family behind me
not knowing what lay ahead
Waving goodbye, as I left them in tears
Remembering all we'd said.
I looked to the sky, I offered my prayers
I asked Him for guidance and strengh
But the simple beliefs of a simple man
Lay in His hands, and on my head.
I gave everything that they wanted
But still they wanted more
We sweat and we toiled
Good men lost their lives
I don't think they knew what for.
I sold them my heart
I sold them my soul
I gave everything I had
But they couldn't break my spirit
My dignity fought back,
Fightback
Can you hear me
Can you see.
Don't you hear me
Don't you see.
We worked in gangs for all we were worth
The young boys pulling the wagons
We were digging the tunnel, shifting the earth
It was then that it happened.
No-one knew how the cracks appeared
But as it fell they all disappeared
Stone fell like rain.
Can you hear me,
Can you see.
Don't you hear me.
Can you breathe.
The smoke cleared, the dust it settled.
No one knew how many had died
All around there were broken men
They'd said it was safe, they'd lied
You could hear the cries, you could smell the fear
But good fortune that day was mine
And it occured to me that the heart of a good man
It seems is hard to find.
Cn you hear me,
Can you see.
Don't you hear me
Don't you see.
We worked, how we worked like
The devil for our pay
Through the wind, through the snow, through the rain.
Blasting, cutting through Gods country like a knife
Sweat stinging my eyes, there has to be a better life.
But I can hear my children cry
I can see the tears in their eyes
Memories of those I've left behind
Still ringing in my ears.
Will I ever go back again.
Will I ever see her face again.
I'll never forget the night.
As they waved goodbye to thei fathers.
We came from the South,
We came from the North
With picks and with spades
And a new kind of order
Showing no fear of what lies up ahead.
They'll never see the likes of us again.
Driving the last spike.
Lifting and laying the track
With blistering hands,
The sun burning your back.
But I can hear my children cry,
I can see the tears in their eyes
Memories of those I've left behind
Still ringing in my ears.
I'll always remember that night,
As they waved goodbye to their fathers.
We followed the rail, we slept under the stars
Digging in darkness, living with danger,
Showing no fear of what lies up ahead
They'll never see the likes of us again.
