Dust Bowl Dance Lyrics - Sigh No More - Mumford & Sons

The young man stands on the edge of his porch 

The days were short and the father was gone 

There was no one in the town and no one in the field 

This dusty barren land had given all it could yield 

I've been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen 

And I have no idea where else my heart could have been 

I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill 

And now I am sure my heart can never be still 

So collect your courage and collect your horse 

And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse 

Seal my heart and break my pride 

I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide 

Align my heart, my body, my mind 

To face what I've done and do my time

Well you are my accuser, now look in my face 

Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace 

So one man has and another has not 

How can you love what it is you have got 

When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor? 

Liars and thieves you know not what is in store 

There will come a time I will look in your eye 

You will pray to the God that you always denied 

The I'll go out back and I'll get my gun 

I'll say, "You haven't met me, I am the only son" 

Seal my heart and break my pride 

I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide 

Align my heart, my body, my mind 

To face what I've done and do my time 

Seal my heart and break my pride 

I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide 

Align my heart, my body, my mind 

To face what I've done and do my time

Well yes sir, yes sir, yes it was me 

I know what I've done, cause I know what I've seen 

I went out back and I got my gun 

I said, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"
