Well the docks lie crippled In the northem towns The boys have all gone away Trying to find work down south
And mister I walk in the valley of the shadow Won't someone have mercy on my soul On my soul, soul, soul
HALLOWED GROUND how sad is the sound In a valley that once sang out sang proud HALLOWED GROUND where the ships run aground To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town
Now I've seen the future And I've seen the past And I've seen the lights go down On this world fading fast
And mister I walk in the valley of the shadow Won't someone have mercy on my soul On my soul, soul, soul
HALLOWED GROUND how sad is the sound In a valley that once sang out sang proud HALLOWED GROUND where the ships run aground To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town
And mister I walk in the valley of the shadow Won't someone have mercy on my soul On my soul, soul, soul
HALLOWED GROUND how sad is the sound In a valley that once sang out sang proud HALLOWED GROUND where the ships run aground To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town
