I bought the 'Grand Conversation' CD, but it has no lyric sheet. I can transcribe song, but I was hoping someone might have the lyrics to hand. I don't fancy spending 8 quid plus postage to Oz for one song! Thanks for taking the time to post. --Stewie. |

Don't worry your head These people are dead The air was filled with our cries The baying of hounds to the sound Of the hart as it dies "This child is your foe and you know The mother's a whore Break down the door" I still remember the sound The sound of the words that I heard But could not understand The fear in the voice and the noise Of the cracked chapel bell The weeping in Hell And still I remember the smell The fire in the thatch and the catch Of the smoke in my eyes The blood on the face, the disgrace When duty was done The kick of the gun Others will reap the wind Seeds we have sown will be blown To another man's time Sins of the father will fall Upon those yet unborn Others will mourn Others will rue this day Vengeance is sour in the hour When your own children die Time after time the crime Will echo in pain Again and again and again and again and again. Hope this doesn't arrive too late. |

It is too late for the themed presentation I was preparing for a folk festival in June last year, but I am sure many 'catters will be pleased to have the words of your fine song available. Cheers, Stewie. |
