[Lyric] Bells of Rhymney 1994 (Oysterband)

[Verse 1]
Oh what will you give me?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
Is there hope for the future?
Say the brown bells of Merthyr
Who made the mine owners?
Say the black bells of Rhondda
And who killed the miners?
Say the grim bells of Blaina

[Verse 2]
They'll plunder willy-nilly
Say the bells of Caerphilly
They have fangs, they have teeth
Shout the loud bells of Neath
Even God is weary
Say the moist bells of Swansea
What will you give mе?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney

[Verse 3]
Throw thе vandals in court
Shout the loud bells of Newport
All would be well if
Say the green bells of Cardiff
Why so worried, sisters, why?
Say the silver bells of Wye
What will you give me?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
[Verse 4]
Oh what will you give me?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
Is there hope for the future?
Say the brown bells of Merthyr
Who made the mine owners?
Say the black bells of Rhondda
And who killed the miners?
Say the grim bells of Blaina

[Outro]
Who killed the miners?
Who killed the miners?
Who killed the miners?
Who killed the miners?
(Bastards, bastards)
(Bastards, bastards)
