maddy prior - joseph was a tin man by maddy prior كلمات الأغنية

joseph was a tin man
came far across the sea
he came to buy my tin
his nephew came with him
a lad from galilee
i’d meet them at the quay
they’d always stay with me
“romans have no sway here”
he always used to say
“at home they k!ll for fun
hang men out in the sun
on crosses every day
that is the roman way
all rebels they will slay
this is a perfect place here
for free men to walk”
on nights with breezes cool
he’d sit by a pool
and his nephew would talk
in the evening they’d walk
and quietly they’d talk
he hated going back there
“i’ll return one day” he said
“this is the land i love
and this is where i’ll live
when my work is done” he said
“when i’m done with tin and lead
i’ll come back here” he said
i hear he’s on the marsh now
with a church of wattle daub
he’s found his sacred place
all wisdom and grace
and god and his word
he’s living undisturbed
or so i have heard
yes, joseph was a tin man
came far across the sea
he came to buy my tin
his nephew came with him
a lad from galilee
a prophet, seemingly
the man from galilee
—
.
