Winter in the Country

Martin Newell

[Verse 1]
It's winter in the country
Stacks are burning down
Soldiers of her majesty
Are riding into town
Say it's just precaution
I know that's what they said
Somewhere in the city
A factory is dead

[Chorus]
Sliding down the razor
Sliding down the blade
Summer is a long way
When you live in the shade

[Verse 2]
Oh mother can you tell me
Where father's gone today
And if he's going to find a job
Two hundred miles away
Queues are getting longer
Spill into the street
They freeze the wheels of industry
Which never turn for me

[Chorus]
Sliding down the razor
Sliding down the blade
Summer is a long way
When you live in the shade

[Outro]
Winter in the country
