Now the times are heavy on their shoulders
for the people who pave our way
No more running in the future 'cause
the past is here to today
For the son of a carpenter
I can feel your pain
For the son of a carpenter
alone again
Decades of sorrow, war, and grief
and too many things going wrong
The land is wasted and time is
running short for the power is
much too strong
For the son of a carpenter
I can feel your pain
For the son of a carpenter
alone again
He has nothing but to be left alone
his hands and work should will
be carried on
From a third generation son to a
future grandchild
The son of a carpenter
makes the whole world smile
Decades of sorrow and grief
and too many things going wrong
The land is wasted and time
is running short for the work
of a carpenter will carry on - carry on
