Beautiful South – Nearer To God Lyrics

M. Greaves

I work in the steel mills
Where the sun never shines
The pounding of hammers is all mine

And Ive sailed this wide ocean
For money and cod
So far from my loved ones
But nearer to God

So sing a song for the working man

And Ill sing you a love song

And my names Wild Bob Conroy
Im a hard man of old
Now Im a drinker
Coming in from the cold

I fought for the fighting
And I fought for a wage
And I fight for survival
Like most men my age
