fogelberg dan - Forefathers слова песни

They came from ScandinaviaThe land of midnight sunAnd crossed the North AtlanticWhen this century was youngThey`d heard that in AmericaEvery man was freeTo live the way he chose to liveAnd be who he could be.Some of them were farmers thereAnd tilled the frozen soilBut all they got was povertyFor all their earnest toilThey say one was a sailorWho sailed the wide world roundMade home port--got drunk one nightWalked off the pier and drowned.My mother was of Scottish bloodIt`s there that she was bornThey brought her to America in 1924They left behind the highlandsAnd the heather covered hillsAnd came to find AmericaWith broad, expectant dreamsAnd iron wills.My grandad worked the steel millsOf central IllinoisHis daughter was his jewelHis son was just his boyFor thirty years he worked the millsAnd stoked the coke-fed firesAnd looked toward the dayWhen he`d at last turn 65And could retire.ChorusAnd the sons become the fathersAnd the daughters will be wivesAs the torch is passed from hand to handAnd we struggle through our livesThough the generations wanderThe lineage survivesAnd all of usFrom dust to dustWe all become forefathersBy and by.The woman and the man were wedJust after the warAnd they settled in this river townAnd three fine sons she boreOne became a lawyerAnd one fine pictures drewAnd one became this lonely soulWho sits here nowAnd sings this song to you.(Repeat chorus)
