Thread Name: Lyr Req: Sticks and Stones (Peter Bond)
Subject: Lyr Req: Peter Bond Song bout Iron miners
Does anyone have the words for a Peter Bond song about Ironstone Miners (I think)

Starts

On Summer days we kids would play explorers on the moor
as dusk would fall the curlews call would make your sense thrill
when school was done bread to be won again those paths we wore
like moles we tore the iron ore from underneath the hill

chorus

I've suffered sticks I've suffered stones
it's words that broke my bones

Cheers
