Ralph McTell - england

Bit sad but I always play this when I get back to england. I think its a beautiful.

What is it about you, makes me feel this way?

When I'm leaving you, when I'm coming home

I'm lost for words to say.

And I know your faults and failures,

And the troubles that you've been through.

But it's more about what happens now

And what were coming to.

And the echo from the green hills

Runs through her city streets,

And the sun that shines on England

Well it lifts the heart in me.

What is it about you, that took men into war?

Rows and rows of crosses: Who remembers why what for?

The corners of these foreign fields,

The dust in them concealed.

Out of sight but not out of mind,

Don't you know that England feels?

And the echo from the green hills

Runs through the city streets.

The rain that falls on England

Well it washes care from me.

England, oh England

England, oh England

England, oh England

Don't make this out a battle hymn or a song of victory.

It's just a way to try to say what England means to me.

And our accents and our colours change

From the city to the farmland

From the moorland to the mountain,

From the river to the sea.

And the echo from the green hills

Runs through the city streets

The rain that falls on England

Well it washes care from me.

England, oh England

England, oh England

England, oh England

From the rolling road to the winding lane,

From the field to factory,

From summer's haze to winter's glaze,

And all the colours in between.

It's a stillness in the evening.

It's the heartbeat that I'm feeling.

Fron Cornwall to Northumberland,

From the Pennines to the sea.

And the echo from the green hills

Runs through the city streets.

The rain that falls on England

Well it washes care from me

England, oh England

England, oh England

England, oh England

Feelgood-music for the start of a new year:

The-Phenomenal-Handclap-Ban.jpg

Mix big beat, dance, Carlos Santana, disco, swing, the Bee Gees and Marc Bolan in one pot.

Then cook it, don't forget to stir it occasionally.

You end up with one of the best albums of the year 2009.

Friggin' fantastic.
