Lyrics for Grapes Of Wrath by Mission Uk:
| | | Artist: | Mission Uk |
| | Album: | Carved In Sand | | Track: | Grapes Of Wrath | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 69 | | | | Lyrics: | The sweat upon his brow and the dirt worked into his hands
The dignity of labour upon a man's
own land
The soil of his fathers passes on down through blood to
hand
A man's right
of birth to reap the harvest from his land
The breaking of his back to keep his dream
alive
To work the change of season his instinct to survive
The planting of his seed and to
see his harvest grow
Gives a pride to a man to reap the harvest that he sows
The
land of the free, home of the brave
The heartland of pioneers, the heritage of flesh and
blood
And along come the winds that blow through the land
With a price to pay for the
working man
Money talks and changes hands
And money reaps the harvest money
demands
The grapes of wrath
The can take away his freedom they can beat him into the
dust
They can burn his home, run him from his land, and leave
him out to gather
rust
But they can't take away his faith and his honesty and
pride and the knowledge that
he holds inside
One day they'll reap the harvest
The grapes of wrath
There's
hope in a man that nothing can destroy
A man will endure anything for the dream that he
holds
dear
And there's pride in a man who knows the truth
His faith in the earth he
toils for
His honesty for the air he breathes
The truth of the harvest they will
reap
