Current song lyrics
A long time ago came a man on a track<br>walking thirty miles with a pack on his back<br>and he put down his load where he thought it was the best<br>made a home in the wilderness<br>he built a cabin and a winter store<br>and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore<br>and the other travellers came riding down the track<br>and they never went further, no, they never went back<br>then came the churches then came the schools<br>then came the lawyers then came the rules<br>then came the trains and the trucks with their loads<br>and the dirty old track was the telegraph road<br><br>Then came the mines - then came the ore<br>then there was the hard times then there was a war<br>telegraph sang a song about the world outside<br>telegraph road got so deep and so wide<br>like a rolling river. . .<br><br>And my radio says tonight it´s gonna freeze<br>people driving home from the factories<br>there´s six lanes of traffic<br>three lanes moving slow. . .<br><br>I used to like to go to work but they shut it down<br>I got a right to go to work but there´s no work here to be found<br>yes and they say we´re gonna have to pay what´s owed<br>we´re gonna have to reap from some seed that´s been sowed<br>and the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles<br>they can always fly away from this rain and this cold<br>you can hear them singing out their telegraph code<br>all the way down the telegraph road<br><br>You know I´d sooner forget but I remember those nights<br>when life was just a bet on a race between the lights<br>you had your head on my shoulder you had your hand in my hair<br>now you act a little colder like you don´t seem to care<br>but believe in me baby and I´ll take you away<br>from out of this darkness and into the day<br>from these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain<br>from the anger that lives on the streets with these names<br>´cos I´ve run every red light on memory lane<br>I´ve seen desperation explode into flames<br>and I don´t want to see it again. . .<br><br>From all of these signs saying sorry but we´re closed<br>all the way down the telegraph road
