Four Stone Walls

by Capercaillie

Lyrics
We are born of ancient family
Living here all our days
And though we love our scenery
Wouldn't we just love somewhere to stay?

It's an order for eviction
And I can't believe I'm seeing what I see
If it kills I will surround myself
With four stone walls

A little pride upon the shelf

And four stone walls around me

And they came to meet you, one and all

With big words in the village hall

Getting older, looking back “

Still the fact is nothing changed at all

Never charity we seek, just honest wages

Once a week and a place called home

If it kills I will surround myself
With four stone walls

A little pride upon the shelf

And four stone walls around me

To whom it will concern within your office “

Wouldn't you wish more than this, a caravan “
Pushed aside, forgotten land
For me and my kind

If it kills I will surround myself
With four stone walls
A little pride upon the shelf
And four stone walls around me
If it kills I will surround myself
With four stone walls
A little pride upon the shelf
And four stone walls around me
