Take my hand, c’mon hold on tight,And we'll be on our way.
Rising sun in the morning light,No longer will we lay.
Yeah because our love is alright,Yeah because our love,La, la, la.

Golden was the bird I knew,Sang a song so free then flew,And they won't come back,Can't come back.
Golden was the bird long gone,Sang a little while, flew on,And they won't come back,Can't come back.
Yeah, I woke one morning, long time gone,A magpie’d come to steal away my song,Was up against the window yeah tapping on the pane,But it couldn't get in, no, kept calling my name.
Golden was the bird,And they won't come back.

I'm a working man,And I've got working hands,And I've worked the land for ages, hmm.
But the toll this life has taken,Is a back that’s always aching,And if my scars could tell their tales,It'd take a long, long time,You'd hear about broken bones and splinters.
Yeah, tankard ales and long dark winters,A laureate who’s not worried at the rhyme.
Oh but when the rain comes down,I stop the rain from falling on the ground.
I'm a working man,And I've got working hands,I've worked the land for ages, hmm,For ages, hmm.

Higher,All,All for me,He did it all,All for me,All for me,Yes he did,All for me,Yes he did,Yes he did,All,All for me,He did it all,All for me,All,Yes he did,Yes he did,Higher,Higher,Higher,All,All for me,He did it all,All for me,Yes he did,Yes he did.
