When the first among the ground were laid
I wouldn’t fall under the man’s curse
Onward forth into a land unknown
Swords were drawn upon their own
Provider, carry on
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Come morning, miles along
Gathered 'round those remain
With bird in hand a cry for all the land
Joy to gain
Winter came and I was old and alone
Time since gone gone under the man’s curse
Onward forth onto a land unknown
With only hope for the seeds to grow
Provider, carry on
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Provider, carry on
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Come morning, miles along
Gathered 'round those remain
With bird in hand a cry for all the land
Joy to gain
I wouldn’t fall under the man’s curse
Onward forth into a land unknown
Swords were drawn upon their own
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Gathered 'round those remain
With bird in hand a cry for all the land
Joy to gain
Time since gone gone under the man’s curse
Onward forth onto a land unknown
With only hope for the seeds to grow
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Far from the golden age
Follow me down a fox hole in the ground
Don’t delay
Gathered 'round those remain
With bird in hand a cry for all the land
Joy to gain
