The Honey Dewdrops - Hills of My Home lyrics

Artist: The Honey Dewdrops

album: Silver Lining


Hills of my home I see so clearly
Running from down south and way up north
Committed now to my memory
Hills of my home ain't there no more
Machines have sat atop the mountains
What they did we allowed them to do
We closed our eyes all the while
Now there's nothing left in our view
Did we care for what was given us?
Are we better off than before?
How long can this crop sustain us?
In the end where will we have to turn?
You say we've been put to the purpose
What we gave gone on to the greater good
But the giving was never about us
The greater good was never for the greater good
And if there's money 'neath the ground I never seen it
They took everything we ever had
The soil and the streams above the coalfields
Are but a scar now upon a broken land
Did we care for what was given us?
Are we better off than before?
How long can this crop sustain us?
In the end where will we have to turn?
