Saxon - Iron Wheels lyrics
[Saxon - Iron Wheels lyrics]
My father used to work the
Seam far below the ground
Digging for the coal to melt the steel
But now he lies a twisted man
One foot in the grave
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the fisherman
That sailed the mighty sea
Searching for the harvest from the deep
But now the fleets are rusting
Hulks anchored at the quay
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the farming
Man standing tall and proud
Working on the land to sow the seed
But now the buildings stand in
Shame rotting on the land
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Seam far below the ground
Digging for the coal to melt the steel
But now he lies a twisted man
One foot in the grave
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the fisherman
That sailed the mighty sea
Searching for the harvest from the deep
But now the fleets are rusting
Hulks anchored at the quay
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the farming
Man standing tall and proud
Working on the land to sow the seed
But now the buildings stand in
Shame rotting on the land
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
