Guy Verlinde - Sacred Ground songtekst
Je score:
Straight out of school, into the factory Build a home, support your family Just like your dad did before Early shifts, working overtime Cash in hand at the assembly line Movin’ up, but so little around & your sacred ground, sacred ground Your frustration, my way out Your sacred ground, sacred ground Lifted the future while it anchored you down One for all, all for the company Was just a one-way solidarity When you needed it most No politician & no union man Knew how to lead this money dance As they turned you into the unemployment line & your sacred ground, sacred ground Your depression, my safe cloud Your sacred ground, sacred ground Built the new world while it broke you down Between the first punch in, the last kick out I became a man. As they left diggin’ for gold All those dreams you held so close Slipped out of your hands When they shut down, oh they shut down Your sacred ground, sacred ground All is quiet since they left town Your sacred ground, sacred ground But don’t let those bastards Don’t let those bastards grind you down
