Ralph McTell - Stranger To The Seasons Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • A man without a job is a stranger to the seasons
  • The April rain will soak you like the worst November brings
  • And we're tired of the excuses and the carefully worded reasons
  • Without Winter there's no Summer
  • Without Autumn there's no Spring.
  • When the factories close down the life bleeds from the town.
  • Some politicians tells us, 'move and build another home',
  • But weren't they voted in to lead us?
  • No one said they had to feed us.
  • If they'd get us back our jobs
  • Then we would take care of our own.
  • Chorus
  • For a man without a job
  • Is a stranger to the seasons
  • No music to the cycle of the changes will he hear.
  • Like a band without a drummer
  • There's no Winter, Spring, or Summer
  • There's no rhythm to the passing of the
  • Months that make the year.
  • Everyone is poorer for the millions
  • Who keep growing
  • Whose season stays at Autumn
  • And whose only colour's grey
  • Though we get by on the dole
  • It feeds the body, starves the soul
  • And stirs the bitterness that's growing
  • In the ones who've been betrayed.
  • Chorus
