Son Of The Soil lyrics

I'm a son of the soil I'm a son of the land I'm the son of my father And I know I can never be a happy man I'm tired of the dust and decay I'm weary of flinging my heart's wealth away I'm bitter At sowing for others to reap All I need is Rest I'm tired of prayers and singing hymns I'm weary of waiting to take place withim I, a choirboy know That He is as ugly as sin I'm a son of the soil I'm a son of the land I'm the son of my father And I know I can never be a happy man I'm tired of the dust and decay I'm weary of flinging my heart's wealth away I'm bitter When I llok around and see what's happening All I need is Rest I'm a son of the soil I'm a son of the land I'm a son of my father And I know I can never be a happy man I have been faithful
