In the Valley

My grandfather went down with the Montevideo

The rising sun, sent him floating to his rest

And his wife fled south to Sydney, seeking out safe harbour

A north shore matron, she became with some paying guestsMy father went down with the curse of big cities

Traffic tolls and deadlines, took him to his peace

Now Bob Dyer glued us to our seats

And lawns were always victa neat

Whilst menzies fawned at royal feet do you rememberIn the valley, I walk I took some comfort there

In the valley, I walk cold comfort, I can hear you talk

In the valley, I walk who will take me thereWhen my mother went down, it was a stiff arm from Hades

Life surprises and tears you like the southerly

She always welcomed the spring always welcomed the stranger

I don't see too many around like this

Oh no, that's what I'm looking for, year, what we're looking forIn the valley, I walk who will take me there

In the valley, I walk cold comfort I can hear you talk

In the valley, I walk I took some comfort there

In the valley, I walk oh rough justice I hear you talk

In the valley, I walk to meet my water shedI hope virtue brings its own reward

And I hope the pen is mightier than any sword

I hope the kids will take it slow

I hope my country claims its ownIn the valley, I walk, I cried yes, I cried, I was down, then I crawled

Mercy's arms all around me, when I was down there

In the valley, I walk do you read me, they can hear me in the valley
