Dance Called America Lyrics - Party On The Moor: 40th Anniversary Concert Live - Runrig

The landlords came 

The peasant trials 

To sacrifice of men 

Through the past and that quite darkly 

The presence once again 

In the name of capital 

Establishment 

Improvers, its a name 

The hidden truths 

The hidden lies 

That once nailed you 

To the pain

They did a dance 

Called America 

They danced it round 

And waited at the turns 

For America 

They danced their ladies round 

To the candles 

Of enlightenment 

Once lit they say don't burn 

To turn the darkest room of suffering 

To a greater state of pain 

Don't tell me that's behind you now 

Don't greet me 

Don't meet your dying blind 

It's our very last stand together 

So let's sever 

No regrets

They did a dance 

Called America 

They danced it round 

And waited at the turns 

For America 

They danced their ladies round 

There were days 

That once held confidence 

Strength of will and mind 

The camouflage that once washed your fathers 

Your sons and daughters time 

Another tounge 

My love, my island 

You've gone international 

With all the praying men of God 

Who stood 

And watched it all go on 

They did a dance 

Called America 

They danced it round 

And waited at the turns 

For America 

They danced their ladies round
