| Lyrics: | a word in your ear, from father to son
hear the words that I say
i fought with you, fought
on your side
long before you were born
joyful the sound, the word goes
around
from father to son, to son
and the voice is so clear, time after time it
leeps
calling you, calling you on
don't destroy what you see, your country to be
just
keep on building on the ground that's been won
kings will be crowned, the word goes
around
from father to son, to son
take this letter that I give you,
take it
sonny, hold it high
you won't understand a word that's in it
but you'll write it all again
before you die
a word in your ear from father to son
funny you don't hear a single
word I say
but my letter to you, will stay by your side
through the years till the
loneliness is gone
sing if you will -
but the air you breathe I live to give
you
father to son
father to, father to, father to son
joyful the sound,
the word goes around
from father to son, to son...
kings will be crowned, the word
goes around
from father to son, to son |
