Red Hill Mining Town Lyrics
The song Red Hill Mining Town is performed by U2 in the album named The Joshua Tree in the year 1990 .
Send Red Hill Mining Town Ringtone to your Cell
From father to son, the blood runs thin
Ooh, see faces frozen still, against the wind
The seam is split, the coal face cracked
The lines are long, there's no going back
Through hands of steel and heart of stone
Our labor day has come and gone
And you leave me holdin' on
In Red Hill town, see lights go down
I'm hangin' on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting, I'm hangin' on
You're all that's left to hold on to
The gla*s is cut, the bottle run dry
Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt
I can lose myself, you, I can't live without
Yeah, you keep me holdin' on
In Red Hill town, see the lights go down on
I'm hangin' on, you're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting, hangin' on
You're all that's left to hold on to, on to
We'll scorch the earth, set fire to the sky
We stoop so low, to reach so high
A link is lost, the chain undone
We wait all day for night to come
And it comes like a hunted child
I'm hangin' on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting, I'm hangin' on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Love, slowly stripped away
Love, has seen its better day
Hangin' on
Let's go out on Red Hill
Let's go down on Red Hill
Let's go down on Red Hill town
Let's go down on Red Hill
