All In A Life's Work

(专辑： Poetic Justice - 1996)

The hungry man knows who's to blame, the city boys who know no shame
Who justify the things they do with ugly, callous attitude
The wind of change it howls outside and makes my pony terrified
The greensward in the dust and gloom lies dormant in the afternoon

A hungry man knows what it means
He got eyes that see beyond the common dreams
It's all in a life's work, all in a life's work

The suitcase left unopened where the ravaged huddled in despair
Sit head in hands in dread pursuit of any lie that hints at truth
The common saviour, so it goes with hyped-up children in repose
And the satisfaction that it cost, the lucky man, the taxman lost

A hungry man knows what it means
He got eyes that see beyond the common dreams
It's all in a life's work, all in a life's work

It's all in a life's work, all in a life's work

Who knows where the river flows? It wanders on, and on it goes
Who sees where the companies and lines of men fall to their knees?
The country doctor rambles on in Dylan's dream where life is song
Many times you'd kneel and pray, the big battalions stay away

A hungry man knows what it means
He got eyes that see beyond the common dreams
It's all in a life's work, all in a life's work

It's all in a life's work, all in a life's work
