the blues of the hills


The highland people sing
The blues of the hills
Once it was a cool living
Now the illegal clearing of land

The people of the hills
They shouldn't wait for the authorities to act
They better keep a watch amongst themselves
Band it together to save the hills

They should know by now
The authorities are slow to enforce
Only when it is front page news
The heads will give excuses

The pro-active ways
It is only in lip services
No wonder the highland people sing
The blues of the hills
