seth lakeman - underground lyrics

one, two, three

lift me up, take me home
they’re closing down the gates
the bl++dy men have had their say
she’s passed herself by date
all we offer is sweat and blood
to put our labour in
all we are, all we give
won’t change this state we’re in

there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground

you and me it’s down the road
thanks for what you’ve donе
when that penny drops at last
what elsе shall we become
i’ve been here for twenty years
what’s a man to do?
crawl along walk the line for another life to chew

there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground
there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground
i walk a land of quiet hope
but these are sorry times
with empty streets and empty towns
no work for us to find
i look outside all around
for police to take us home
they don’t exist cause those did
are like the good days dead and gone

there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground
there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground

from the hardest time
is a way to find
a better life

we’ll survive on our own
cause that’s the way we’re made
though we won’t be quite the same
when all the dust is laid
when we think we’ve made some change
that sets our race apart
we know they’re buried deep below
locked there in a young man’s heart
there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground
there’ll be no more raising
there’ll be no more sound
just a far off cry from the underground
