Karaoke Track: Come Home Rhondda Boy (Son Of Wales) by David Alexander (Myfanwy Music) - Karaoke Nerds

(Spoken)
At the end of the

First World war,

the weary men returned

from the battlefields to

a land fit for heroes.

But the mine owners

told the miners -

the battle cry rose

Not a minute on the

day and not a penny

off our pay!

The miners went on

strike. It was a long

and bitter fight. Times

were hard and children

went hungry. Many left

the valleys to seek a better
life in the cities all

over the world.

(Sing)
You left.... your homes....

and valleys....

all those years ago...

like many.. of the

young men... at the time...

And as you left...

the station...

you knew you weu'e'leaving ......

the rivers...
and the mountains...

and the mines....

You came into

the cities....

left your friends...

at home...

to make yourself .....

a better life...

was your aim .....

But the heartbeat .....

of the Rhondda .....

is not a thing you see .....

but is always....

calling.... out your name .....

Come home....

Come home....

calling.... out your name .....

Come home....

Come home....

to where... you belong....

back.... to... Wales .....
Your land.... of song ......

The bright lights...

to where... you belong....

back.... to... Wales .....

Your land.... of song ......

The bright lights...

of the cities....

are not what. they seem...

Come home....

Rhondda Boy... to your

valleys.... so green .....

00000

Now all your life's

been lonely .....

since you left...

your home....

and now... you see

that nothing .....

can compare ......
Where else... in all this

wide world....

can you stand... on a

hillside....

and hear.. a thousand...

voices... fill the air....

Come home...

Come home....

voices... fill the air....

Come home...

Come home....

to where.. you.. belong...

back... to... Wales .....

your land... of song .....

the bright lights...
of the cities...

back... to... Wales .....

your land... of song .....

the bright lights...
of the cities...

are not... what they seem...

Come home... Rhondda Boy....
to your valleys... so green....
Come home... Son of Wales....

to valleys.... 50.... green ......
