| West Country Lady G Over piper stock hill, take the time for to wander C D Across the main Bridge to the north side and yonder G And if you look long to the west C D Theres a chance that you will see he move down to the bridge for a dance Em C And she still hears the music of Andelem's Saw Em D And she still looks to nature to lay out the law Chorus: G She's a west country lady from back in the past C D G And she faces the ocean where noisy waves blast on the rocks G And the wind blows her gales from all quaters C D G C G D G.... For summer sun sparkles on still waters down in the bay She was there when they came on that very first ship And she saw how the Admirals ruled with a whip And she worked with her man and her young sons and daughters To harvest the fields the woods and the waters And often with sadness she'll look to the sea With a longing for times that were never to be Chorus When the seas was the way between island and nation And old ways were new ways in this planters station She watched all the changes with pride and some sorrow Some old ways remain and she hopes that tommorow Will kindly attend to her boutiful sea And the land and her people will always be free Chorus x 2 |
