《A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do》歌词

[00:00:24] It was a coal town He spent his whole life in a hole in

[00:00:32] The ground smashing pieces of earth

[00:00:37] He never really saw the sky

[00:00:40] It was a hard life But little black rocks make the televisions

[00:00:49] Work and put food on the table

[00:00:53] Until the unions cast him aside

[00:00:58] Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do

[00:01:06] And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in

[00:01:11] Than anyone ever should

[00:01:13] And all my sorrows pale to insignificance

[00:01:22] That's why I love you

[00:01:46] She was in a strange land She taught herself to read

[00:01:54] From doing crosswords and hiding her accent

[00:02:00] She cast her dreams aside

[00:02:02] She had a spark in her eye

[00:02:08] She never saw her son on his wedding day

[00:02:12] Or our cherry blossoms falling down from the sky

[00:02:20] Now there's a hundred challening things a boy can do

[00:02:29] And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in

[00:02:33] Than anyone ever should

[00:02:36] And all my sorrows pale to insignificance

[00:02:45] That's why I love you

[00:03:11] No coal mines

[00:03:13] No not a trace

[00:03:15] Now shopping malls take their place

[00:03:19] No picket lines

[00:03:27] The sacrifice

[00:03:29] Dreams overrun

[00:03:31] Hopes for a future for her son in Ollerton

[00:03:43] Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do

[00:03:52] And you've waved goodbye and held more tears in

[00:03:57] Than anyone ever should

[00:04:00] And all my sorrows pale to insignificance

[00:04:07] That's why she loves you

[00:04:17] A hundred challenging things a boy can do

[00:04:45] Wave goodbye

[00:04:46] Wave goodbye

[00:04:46] A hundred challenging

[00:04:47] Say goodbye to you
