From the top of this hill We were brought down low Never lo, to return to you Lost count of the slain In that September rain On along, never coming home We counted the tears Between Tyne and Wear Marched along, Durham growing near Kept in the kirk, 3,000 bodies hurt Half of us destined for the dirt Some set sail and some dug trenches Some in mines and all indentured Some remained and all remembered Some were lost and soon forgotten And the fields of Dunbar, they grow slowly Through cold, dreamless nights We burned everything in sight To keep warm, not to do harm But it just goes to show If you really want to know That the victor alone gets his story told Some set sail and some dug trenches Some in mines and all indentured Some remained and all remembered Some were lost and soon forgotten And the fields of Dunbar, they grow slowly Some set sail and some dug trenches Some in mines and all indentured Some remained and all remembered Some were lost and soon forgotten And the fields of Dunbar, they grow slowly
