Valley lyrics

Wake hard in the morning.
See the young girl milking.
Stream rushing by on a bed of stone.
Old goats and sandstone cracking -
All-containing -
Squeezing that river like it squeeze your bones.
It the long red, red valley people live here too long.
It the long red, red valley they only sing the valley song.

Some bad people living further down the valley.
Not easy for us to do good trade,
We got snowmelt, showmelt sweet water:
They got that valley road that they made.
In the long red, red valley people dying here too long.
In the long red, red valley they only sing the valley song.

Chorus:
Holding hands on the hillside.
Showing love to your brother -
Your sister and your mother -
But we hate those people down the valley.

Has anybody seen Moses ?
Get him off that mountain.
Bring back the tablets of stone.
It's a wise, wise prophet who keeps his own council.
Yeah, leave the other man's wife alone.
In the long red, red valley people living here too long.
In the long red, red valley only sing the valley sing.

Chorus.

Wake hard in the morning.
See the young girl milking.
Stream rushing by on the bed of stone.
Old goats and sandstone cracking -
All-containing -
Squeezing that river like it squeeze your bones.
In the long red, red valley people living here too long.
In the long red, red valley they only live the valley song.
In the long red, red valley people dying here too long.
In the long red, red valley only know the valley song.
