Iron Wheels - Saxon

My father used to work the seam far below the ground

Digging for the coal to melt the steel

But now he lies a twisted man one foot in the grave

Just like the iron wheels that took him down

Just like the iron wheels that took him down

He used to be the fisherman that sailed the mighty sea

Searching for the harvest from the deep

But now the fleets are rusting hulks anchored at the quay

Just like the iron wheels that took him down

Just like the iron wheels that took him down

He used to be the farming man standing tall and proud

Working on the land to sow the seed

But now the buildings stand in shame rotting on the land

Just like the iron wheels that took him down

Just like the iron wheels that took him down
