Working Man - Paul Child

[@MegaBabykins]

This song reminds me so much of my dad God rest his soul who passed 14 years ago just gone on the 4th this month. He deserves as much a medal as the soldiers who has passed. I miss you so much dad You are and always were my hero xxxxxxxxx

This is a song that makes big welsh men stand up and cry with pride and means a lot in my family because of my uncles from up pontypool way, and because of my Grampa big Ted Lear from cwmbran."God bless you all"

Thank you for singing this beautiful song! Rita MacNeil was so powerful in her creation of this song, and also sings it most beautifully in Canada from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

[@davekat]

Pray for me lost deep beneath, with only the company of your memory, I drift to sleep, Pray for me lost as shadows creep, I hold you close in faith and belief, That one day soon I shall see the light of love, of you that lit my darkness from above, Hold me close now in prayer and heart, for we are here and never apart. Pray for me and not let go for you sustain me now lost below.. pray for me.. pray for me...
