Riddle In Londontown Lyrics - Us Against The Crown - State Radio

Heard of a land held by a troubled hand 

Where the whiskey runs the coal 

Don't you dare go ask the newsman 

'Cause he'll tell you everything he don't know 

She was the daughter of the second American revolution 

A tall girl with a stones constitution 

And when she looked into their eyes to see 

She know she ain't never going back to what she believe 

To what you believe 

So go and riddle me over 

I'm a man got nothing to show for 

My work in the ground 

In this here Londontown 

So go and riddle me over 

I'm a man got nothing to show for 

My work in the ground, got my back to the fire 

But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

They said they would never fight no more 

After the day she went away 

What in the world are we all fighting for 

If we don't give they're going to take, they will take 

So go and riddle me over 

I'm a man got nothing to show for 

My work in the ground 

In this here Londontown 

So go and riddle me over 

I'm a man got nothing to show for 

My work in the ground 

Got my back to the fire and my feet on the ground 

But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

It's just another, it's just a 

Go and riddle me over 

Go and riddle me over 

I'm a man got nothing to show for 

My work in the ground, got my back to the fire 

But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

Say that again, you say that again 

Oh, what's left to hold in place 

Say that again, say that again 

Oh, what's left to hold in place 

Say that again, say that again 

Oh, what's left to hold in place 

Say that again, say that again 

Oh, what's left to hold in place 

Say that again, say that again
