Bring It Round Lyrics


The foreman keeps me working here for half a buck a day
If I didn't need the exercise I'd up and walk away.
I'd write home and tell 'em about this life of mine
But I'm too busy counting days and trying to walk the line.
Bring it round, bring it round,
One more time so I can see your face
Sitting in my favorite place
Make a home where I can stay
Find somewhere that I can lay me down
Bring it round.
The sun goes down another day comes back up again
Hasn't got a dollar, hasn't got a friend.
Old Hannah talks to me, leaves me feeling fine
Lying on the roadway and lighting up the line.
(chorus)
Hear the hammers pounding, hear the foreman yell
"You don't load up sixteen tons, I'll make your hours hell."
But the days flow by like water, now the water's turned to wine

You could charge a dollar for a drink all along the line.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Minneapolis-based folk rockers Boiled in Lead may have started as a Celtic punk band back in the 80s, but as the years went by, they incorporated aspects of folk music from just about every part of the world, including the Balkans and the Middle East, all done up in their hard-rocking style (both acoustic and electric). The band has always sought to play a variety of music, both songs and instrumentals and with a large variety of guest musicians and sometimes some unusual instruments.
