Economy - P-Nev

The lonely streets the tall dark mill
It stood a hundred years it's standing still
It's stood the snow it's stood the rain
And it could stand them all again
Woollen town oh woollen town
You've been a pillar of economy
But now this mill is closing down
Many years ago or so they say
Seven year old children were working fifteen hours a day
And through those years of industrial strife
The looms were turning always day and night
But never again
The lonely streets the tall dark mill
It stood a hundred years it's standing still
It's stood the snow it's stood the rain
And it could stand them all again
Woollen town oh woollen town
You've been a pillar of economy
But now this mill is closing down
The lonely streets are dark and bare
No children playing no one walks there
There's just the mill standing alone
Its walls are damp and overgrown
Woollen town oh woollen town
You've been a pillar of economy
But now this mill has closed down
