When the first men on the ground were laid
|
I wouldn't fall under the mad skirts
|
Onward forth into a land of gold
|
Swords were drawn upon the road
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Provider, carry on
|
Far from the golden age
|
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
|
Don't delay
|
|
Come morning, miles along
|
Gathered round, those remained
|
With [?] and a cry for the land
|
Joy to gain
|
|
Winter came and I was old and alone
|
Time set's gone under the mad skirts
|
Onward further to a land unknown
|
With only hope of the sea's ago
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Provider, carry on
|
Far from the golden age
|
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
|
Don't delay
|
|
Provider, carry on
|
Far from the golden age
|
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
|
Don't delay
|
|
Come morning, miles along
|
Gathered round, those remained
|
With [?] and a cry for the land
|
Joy to gain
|
