hazel dickens & alice gerrard - you gave me a song lyrics

[verse 1: alice gerrard]
we used to be a family in our little cabin home
whose windows, they are broken and whose chimney’s dark and cold
but jobs were hard to find back then, it wasn’t easy to survive
so, one by one, we all left home to change our way of life

[verse 2: alice gerrard]
i got a job in a factory on that old assembly line
gonna climb up on the hill and leave my past behind
but the only climbin’ that i did was five flights up the stairs
and the past i thought left behind went with me everywhere

[chorus: alice gerrard with hazel d+ckens]
’cause you gavе me a song
of a place that i call home
a song of thеn, a song of now
a song of yet to come

[verse 3: alice gerrard]
so, here we are, my past and me a+workin’ in this bar
sang a song of broken hills and streams that once ran clear
sang a song of you, my friend, lonely like me
the city’s taken all we have but sweet, sad memories

[verse 4: alice gerrard]
but someday i’ll go home again; lord, it’s a been a long, hard road
i’m not saying that i’ll stay, but i know now if i go
i’m gonna take you on with me and what you gave when i was young
others held me for a while, but you held me all along
[chorus: alice gerrard with hazel d+ckens]
’cause you gave me a song
of a place that i call home
a song of then, a song of now
a song of yet to come
