"Barleycorn" lyrics
(feat. Will Poulter, Naomi Ackie & Lydia Wilson)
(from "The Score" soundtrack)
In my heart is a valley
The meek should be exalted
I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Men from the west came
Money on their mind
For the blood of Sir John
They would murder his kind
Men from the west came
Money on their mind
For the blood of Sir John
They would murder his kind
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Listen, you've got to fell him
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now
Listen, you've got to fell him
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear
The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear
Hallelujah, hallelujah
In my heart is a valley
The meek should be exalted
I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter
The meek should be exalted
I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Men from the west came
Money on their mind
For the blood of Sir John
They would murder his kind
Men from the west came
Money on their mind
For the blood of Sir John
They would murder his kind
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Listen, you've got to fell him
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now
Listen, you've got to fell him
John Barleycorn is ours now
There's a tale in the telling
John Barleycorn must die now
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear
The season to destroy you
Comes year after year
It's the same darn machine
Taking ear after ear
Hallelujah, hallelujah
In my heart is a valley
The meek should be exalted
I will walk through this valley
My steps seem to falter
