Thread Name: (Quiz) What song is this line from ?
Subject: RE: (Quiz) What song is this line from ?
Let's see if these are easier:

bf16. Risking black-lung and cave-ins, and flying red-hot splinters
And bleeding ruptured eardrums after "Fire in the hole!"
(US)

bf17. I have moved and kept on moving
Proved the points I've needed proving
(UK)

bf18. They came from Fort William wi' murder in mind
The Campbell had orders King William had signed
(UK)

bf19. And in the months that followed our love and friendship grew
Warmed by the summer sun and a love that was so new
(UK)

bf20. I've seen the red sun rising over Fuji's silver crown
And seen the same sun dipping down over smoky New York Town
(UK)

bf21. From the darkness of that prison came the sound of his brothers singing
Courage, their voices told him, you do not walk alone
(AUS)

bf22. And peace came to Arlingham many long years ago
Time passing by healed the scars on the land
(UK)

bf23. While I was on that journey, I met her in a copse
She had a handsome thick red coat, straight away my heart was lost
(UK)

bf24. For your waters rode easy, serene and so gentle
While the battle and bloodshed around you did roll
(US)

bf25. We gave them our four pounds and twenty
One last look at that green rocky shore
(UK/US?)

bf26. Stole your land, stole your lives
Poisoned your families.. raped your wives
(AUS)

Best wishes,

Bente
