Dougie MacLean - Solid Ground songtekst
Je score:
The Autumn spate The spreading hazels rustle as they bend and sway As they laden wait My fathers they have walked this road And now I know And yes didn't they know There is no great and heavy load And now I know And yes didn't they know Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground on Solid Ground Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground Across the Arlick face the amber sun beats down To tinge the vivid green I hear it wide and loud, feel it wild and proud, The way it's always been My fathers they have looked this way And now I know And yes didn't they know No clever words we have to say And now I know And yes didn't they know Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground on Solid Ground Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground It's the land-it is our wisdom It's the land-it shines us through It's the land-it feeds our children It's the land-you cannot own the land The land owns you Where is the honest truth? Where is the open road? Where is the simple smile? A couthie word or two for the passing stranger Who may rest a while My fathers they have said these things And now I know And yes didn't they know The joy that shared friendship brings And now I know And yes didn't they know Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground on Solid Ground Fa la-a la la la-a We stand on Solid Ground It's the land-it is our wisdom It's the land-it shines us through It's the land-it feeds our children It's the land-you cannot own the land The land owns you
