lyrics

He took that family
To the farm by Steeler’s Cove
Cold hands not much to say anymore
Don’t take too long

He lived in solitude to the North
Where wild flower burn
Black thought would weigh like lead
Till the chain set in his head

Morning would come and he would be back home
He’d taken his time and taught them all he’d known
Left on the farm he left them on their own
Promises burned he burnt them there alone
Promises burned alone

He moved from town to town
With a lust untouched
In god he did trust
He told him he’d done what he must

Morning would come and he would be back home
He’d taken his time and taught them all he’d known
Left on the farm he left them on their own
Promises burned he burnt them there alone
Promises burned he burnt them there alone
