Bells of Rhymney by The Chad Mitchell Trio Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1965

[Verse 1]
"Oh, what will you give me?"
Say the bells of Rhymney
"Is there hope for the future?"
Say the brown bells of Merthyr
"And who made the mine owner"
Say the black bells of Rhondda
"And who robbed the miner?"
Say the grim bells of Blaina

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 2]
"They will plunder willy-nilly"
Say the bells of Caerphilly
"They have fangs, they have teeth"
Shout the loud bells of Neathe
"Even God is uneasy"
Say the moist bells of Swansea
"And what will you give me?"
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
"Throw the vandals in court"
Say the bells of Newport
"All would be well if-if-if, if-if-if"
Say the green bells of Cardiff
"Why so worried, sisters, why?"
Sing the silver bells of Wye
"And what will you give me?"
Say the sad bells of Rhymney

[Outro]
Woo, woo, hoo, hoo
Ho, ho, ho, ho-ho
