In and out the seasons, in and out the door
|
The meadows and the woodland, out across the moor
|
Bread for the table, fodder for the store
|
There’s a whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
The men rise early to sharpen up their scythes
|
Their shirtsleeves rolled and their hats brimmed wide
|
There’s method in their muscle as they move on down the line
|
There’s a whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the changing time
|
The line is steady as the mowers make their way
|
They take a drop of cider in the heat of the day
|
The harvest is shared in the time-honoured way
|
There’s a whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
In and out the factory, in and out the mine
|
The office in the city and the market town
|
The mowers they are moving in the rhythm of the time
|
There’s a whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the changing time
|
Penny for a farthing, penny for a ride
|
Penny for your thoughts and a penny for the bride
|
Penny for the poor man who’s left high and dry
|
And a wave and a whistle in the morning
|
In and out the ages, in and out the years
|
Love lies a-courting jealousy and fears
|
There was in the beginning and there will always be
|
A whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
Life’s a moving picture, we capture it in frames
|
The image of the perfect and the image of the lame
|
In the eyes of the mowers we are all the same
|
There’s a whistle on the breeze in the morning
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the time
|
Can you feel the rhythm of the changing time |
