Songtexte Van Diemen's Land - Live - Rattle & Hum Version - U2
Hold me now
ah hold me now
'Til this hour
has gone around
and I'm gone
on the rising tide
for to face Van Diemen's land.
It's a bitter pill I swallow here
to be rent from one so dear
We fought for justice
and not for gain
but the magistrate sent me away.
Now king's will rule
and the poor will toil
and tear their hands as they tear the soil
but a day will come in this dawning age
when an honest man sees an honest wage.
Hold me now
ah hold me know
'til this hour has gone around
and I'm gone
on this rising tide
for to face Van Diemen's land.
