Vin Garbutt - Slaggy Island Farewell lyrics
Oh Slaggy Island, farewell, farewell to thee Your pride has turned into decay All of your sons they have deserted you And now you must return unto the clay When I was young, in your streets I did laugh and play In Coral and Connaught, Fell(?) Street too Your walls, they sheltered me from the wind and the rain But now, the hammer is all that's left for you [Chorus] So Slaggy Island, farewell, farewell to thee Your pride has turned into decay All of your sons they have deserted you And now you must return unto the clay In just one century, you have lived and you have died Your birth meant life to many men You thrived with vocal thorn(?) and the engine of steam Now they have gone and you're alone again [Chorus] Through two long world wars, you have seen many people pass away Now 'tis your turn to say goodbye The social life you built, it will die with you When windowed mountains take the sun from your skies 2 x [Chorus] |
