[00:14.64]There's grievin' in the country
[00:19.98]There's sorrow in the sand.
[00:28.34]There's sobbin' in the shanty
[00:36.06]And there's anger in the land.
[00:44.09]A woman broods in silence
[00:51.80]Close beside an open door;
[01:00.38]Flung on her flimsy doorstep
[01:06.22]Lies a corpse upon the floor.
[01:16.00]"You'll not ask me why I'm silent"
[01:24.84]The woman said to me;
[01:32.12]Her two eyes blazed in anger
[01:39.04]And her throat throbbed agony.
[01:46.85]Once my heart could cry in sorrow
[01:55.70]Now it lies there on the floor
[02:04.20]In the ashes by the hearthstone;
[02:10.92]They can't hurt it anymore.
[02:19.75]
[02:28.76]Oh, let the wind go cryin' yonder
[02:35.20]In the tree-tops by the spring
[02:43.17]Let it's voice be soft and feelin'
[02:51.24]Like it was a livin' thing.
[02:59.08]
[03:05.33]There's grievin' in the country
[03:10.92]There's sorrow in the sand.
[03:19.63]There's sobbin' in the shanty
[03:26.92]And there's anger in the land.
