In This Place Songtext

All the years I worked in this placeThe friends that I knew here, I loved every faceI loved the smoke the heat and the noiseBut the profits too small for the black suited boysOh angel, it?s coming down stone by stoneIt?s breaking up home by homeTake it away, take it away, take itIn this place I will lay my life downIn this place I will let you carry meAs I age so my learning growsI still touch the visionI still smell the rose in this placeAll the years I lived in this placeThe people we knew here, I loved every faceI love the parties, the funerals and fightsBut a supermarket needs the landAnd I have no rightsOh angel, it?s coming down stone by stoneIt?s breaking up home by homeTake it away, take it away, take itIn this place I will lay my life downIn this place I will let you carry meAs I age so my learning growsI still touch the visionI still smell the rose in this placeAll the years I spent in this placeThe children I raised here, I love every faceI love this country, the land of my birthHow much am I wanted, how much am I worthOh angel, it?s coming down stone by stoneIt?s breaking up home by homeTake it away, take it away, take itIn this place I will lay my life downIn this place I will let you carry meAs I age so my learning growsI still touch the visionI still smell the roseIn this place I will lay my life downIn this place I will let you carry meAs I age so my learning growsI still touch the visionI stills mell the rose in this place
