I was walking on the coast road   When the harbor came in view   It was there I saw the hilltop   That I used to walk with you      We'd sing of the old country   Now it's such a lonesome climb   Our world faded once when you were mine      Why is true love so difficult to find   Wish you were here to see it with me one more time   Lala lala, lala lala, lala lala, lala   Wish you were here to sing it with me one more time      Those economic vultures   Stole our dreams and told us tales   Then they towed away our culture   To their depot in south Wales      Corporations get the tax breaks   While the city gets the crime   The profit's going somewhere   But it isn't yours or mine      Still we blindly trust in the divine   Let's sing for the old country, come on, one more time   Lala lala, lala lala, lala lala, ooh   Let's sing it loud with feeling, come on, one more time      You know I must be leaving   And I know you've got to stay   But you know that I'll be grieving   When you're so far away      And if this should be the last time   I should ever see your face   Let's part with no hard feeling   And a positive embrace      And I will speak well of you   When they ask when you were mine   Till then the jet stream up above   Shows us the warning signs      Till we meet again bravely walk the line   Let's sing it loud with feeling, come on, one more time   Lala lala, lala lala, lala lala, ooh   Let's sing for the old country, come on, one more, one more time
