Loud With Feeling




Those economic vultures

Stole our dreams and told us tales

Then they towed away our culture

To their depot in south Wales

Corporations get the tax breaks

While the city gets the crime

The profit’s going somewhere

But it isn’t yours or mine

Still we blindly trust in the divine

Let’s sing for the old country

Come on, one more time

And if this should be the last time

I should ever see your face

Let’s part with no hard feeling

And a positive embrace

And I will speak well of you

When they ask if you were mine

Till then the jet stream up above

Shows us the warning signs

Till we meet again bravely walk the line

Let’s sing it loud with feeling

Come on, one more time

Let’s sing for the old country

Come on, one more, one more time
