Never been a clever man, I've never had my say All I ask is honesty for all the tax I've paid Sown the seed out in the fields and grew the wheat and corn And I've always needed backbone in everything I've done. I've always needed backbone And got along somehow But the pressures of this modern world Test my patience now We're helpless and our hands are tied They've melted down our ploughs And it seems to me that no one needs Our backbone now. Raised my kids and kept my wife the right and proper way Families don't pull together, they pull away Bound the books that you have read and handed your sons And I've always needed backbone in everything I've done. I've always needed backbone And got along somehow But the pressures of this modern world Test my patience now We're helpless and our hands are tied They've melted down our ploughs And it seems to me that no one needs Our backbone now. I was taught that craftsmen Were the backbone of the land But heritage has gone before And no one gives a damn Computers and technology Are built to teach us how And the giant hands of progress boys Have crushed our backbone now Related Lyrics Random lyrics: The New Lone Ranger, Enkeli Minulle Kuiskaa, Meidaen Laulu, Minae Muistelen Sinua, Niin Minae Sinulle Kuulun, Olet Niin Kaunis, Rakastan Sua, Sinae Vain, Tavallinen Taivas, Viimeisellae Lennolla, Vuonna Jotakin, I Love You, (Goodnight My Love) Pleasant Dreams, A Penny For Your Thoughts, Being With You, Dont Take Away the Music, Hardcore Poetry, Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel, Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel (part 1), It Only Takes a Minute, It Only Takes a Minute (Extended Remix), More Than a Woman, Remember What I Told You To Forget, Shes Gone, The Ghost Of Love, The Love I Never Had, Whodunit, Words And Music, Im Going Down, 72 Hour Daze, A Stone In The Ocean, Afraid To Fly, Afterglow, Back Again, Can You Feel, Counting Down The Days, Creeping Up Slowly, Creeping Up Slowly (Some Are Wrong I Think!), Everywhere You Go, Forest For The Trees, Get set, Get Set Correct, Helplessly Hoping, Helplessly Hoping Bonus Track, How I Got This Way, Ice Cream, Let Me Die Young, Lets Spend The Night, Lets Spent The Night, Madrigal, Other Taupin Bernie song Lyrics Billy Fury Lyrics Citizen Jane Lyrics Conquistador Lyrics Corrugated Iron Lyrics Credits Lyrics Desperation Train Lyrics Friend Of The Flag Lyrics Hold Back The Night Lyrics I Still Cant Believe That Youre Gone Lyrics She Sends Shivers Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Tauski Lyrics Tavaramarkkinat Lyrics Tavares Lyrics Taxe Lyrics Taxiride Lyrics Taxis The Lyrics Taydatay Lyrics Taylor Big Lyrics Taylor Chip Lyrics Dayne Taylor Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
