Em D - I have worked the Malerstang Fells. Em D Em - Never asked for more. G C D - Young folks keep moving away, G C D - - Who can get them to stay? Em D There’s money and there’s jobs in the wool towns of the valleys, Em D Em - -This is the land of the old and grey. I have been a lead miner Over the Swaledale way. The clothes on your back, they never get dry, Freezing on a winter’s day. I have seen the colours of this land, Thirty long years or more. Many men drifting to the mines of Durham To the Bradford factory floor. Working on the Carlisle railway Mending broken track. There’s snow on the fells and it’s raining in the valleys, Muscles aching in my back. I uploaded my version of this song in November 2020: Land of the Old and Grey |
