The World According To Lionel

Village Of Stone

When I was a wee lad
I lived in a village
I lived in a village
That was made out of stone
When I was a young boy
I learned in the village
I learned in the village
In a school made of stone

When I was a young man
I drank in the village
I drank in the village
In a pub made of stone
When the drinking was over
I worked in the village
I worked in the village
For the folks cutting stone

When the working ran out
I went far from the village
Far from the village
Yeah the one made of stone
And when I die
Lay me down in the village
Lay me down in the village
And at my head put a stone
And on that stone write
Here's one from the village
Here's one from the village
That made it back home
