Loom of the Land - The Walkabouts.mp3
[00:00.39]It was the dirt...
[00:00.39]It was the dirty end of winter
[00:04.86]Along the loom of the land
[00:09.66]When I walked with sweet Henry
[00:12.72]Hand upon hand
[00:19.14]And the wind, it bit bitter
[00:23.88]For a girl of no means
[00:28.62]With no shoes on her feet
[00:33.36]And a knife in her jeans
[00:37.86]Along the loom of the land
[00:43.23]The mission bells peeled
[00:47.79]From the tower at Saint Mary's
[00:52.20]Down to Reprobate Fields
[00:56.97]And I saw the world
[01:01.71]All blessed and bright
[01:06.81]And Henry breathed softly
[01:11.19]In the majestic night
[01:15.69]Oh baby, please don't cry
[01:22.59]And try to keep
[01:22.92]Your little head upon my shoulder
[01:32.40]Now we'll go to sleep
[01:37.50]The elms and the poplars
[01:42.36]Were turning their backs
[01:46.53]Past the rumbling station
[01:51.75]We followed their tracks
[01:56.01]My hands, they burned
[02:01.14]In the folds of his coat
[02:05.49]Breathing milky white air
[02:10.56]From deep in his throat
[02:14.79]Oh baby, please don't cry
[02:20.16]And try to keep
[02:21.48]Your little head upon my shoulder
[02:31.50]Now we'll go to sleep
[03:14.43]I told him, the moon
[03:18.69]Was a magical thing
[03:23.43]And that it shone gold in winter
[03:28.53]And silver in spring
[03:32.94]And we walked and we walked
[03:37.47]Across the endless sands
[03:42.36]Just me and my Henry
[03:46.92]Along the loom of the land
[03:51.66]Oh baby, please don't cry
[03:56.97]And try to keep
[04:01.20]Oh baby, please don't cry
[04:07.20]And try to keep
[04:07.71]Your little head upon my shoulder
[04:17.85]Now we'll go to sleep
