about

From the album Pencaitland by Southern Tenant Folk Union 2011. Written while building foundations on a house extension with my uncle up in Stoer in Sutherland with the Winter fast approaching... Cold, hard and good for the soul.

lyrics

Where my boots have holes my feet they feel the rain
In a bog to my knees with a bucket and pail
With cement we fill up high this shallow grave
With no-one for miles to see what we have done

I could be sitting at home doing nothing all day
Horizontal man sings songs to the sun
Instead I'm working hard for my pay
Labour season has begun

Lanky packed right up took all but half your ear
Free is the mind now he is gone away
With cement we fill up high this shallow grave
WIth no-one for miles to see what we have done
