Well the docks lie crippled
In the northem towns
The boys have all gone away
Trying to find work down south

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i’ve seen the future
And i’ve seen the past
And i’ve seen the lights go down
On this world fading fast

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i’ve got a wife and a young child
Back home in my house
Oh i’ve got someone
I’ve got to take care of somehow
