Camel - Watching The Bobbins Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Watching the bobbins, go up and down.
  • Fine Irish linen for a ladies gown.
  • One shirt a penny, seven in a tag;
  • Ten hours a day and her heart begins to drag.
  • This never ending cycle goes on.
  • But she promised she would never stay...
  • For long.
  • Rocking the treadle, ache in her soul.
  • She keeps the rhythm and it takes a toll.
  • Threading the needle, strains in her eyes.
  • Old withered fingers steal her young girl's pride
  • She's saving every penny she earns,
  • Because the passion for her freedom
  • Still burns.
