I'm Your Son Songtext
von Neil Michael Hagerty

I′d swear there was a wall
Around my hometown
Preserving all the kids
Their tenderness and faith

I wanna let it pass by
Although it's true to say
That was gone long ago

I′m far away now
I got caught in a job
And it's no relief to think
I might go back


They're not that good anyway
And now I′m leaving New England
With the red sky in my side-mirror

I′m off the river
That's where all the work gets down
But it was you that made me
I′m your son

I got a phone call late yesterday
I couldn't make out the voice
It came from so far away
And it brought to me impatience
That kept around for days

I′m off the river
That's where all the work gets down
But it was you that made me
I′m your son
