England Rolls Away-John Smith

[00:13.19]I woke up in an alleyway [00:16.15]In Liverpool the ship of fools was sinking [00:21.05]As I rose up from the depths [00:23.95]I stumbled down the road a ways [00:28.85]Found London in a haze of weary violence [00:33.52]It is hard to get my rest [00:38.64]In looking for the best of her [00:41.66]Well I have seen the worst she's had to offer [00:46.04]But there's nothing I'll not keep [00:50.83]England [00:54.24] [01:00.90]Blood on the thorn of an English rose [01:07.71]I gather belongings, travelling clothes [01:10.86]Now slowly drifting out of London Bridge [01:15.71] [01:17.67]It could be a year [01:19.12]It could be ten [01:20.61]Until she begs me back again [01:23.61]And all my miles are measured in an inch [01:30.18]Every fear that's taken over [01:36.79]This wide-eyed waking, rambling rover [01:43.22]Has grown within the heart that is my home [01:49.43] [02:01.47]England! [02:08.06]In-ger-land! [02:19.19] [02:22.44]England rolls away.
