since the days of ole
were the words said by the old
about the things that happened along
young strong men they took alone
to the land of the fame
leaving wife and child at home
the young shall grow
that child shall grow
leading into the known
of the things of ole
said by the old
tears flow down their cheeks
the child with no one to mingle
and no one he hopes in
lonely he stays in the inn
all alone, all alone
he is at home!!
