Lyrics
The Hedgehog - Jeremy Wray 2006
Alone in this country, the weather is fine
A fool to believe, though, it was mine
I never did harm, at least none I could see
I lived my life how it?s meant to be
But then they came and they
Carved their way
Making their plans, what could I say?
Chorus
I live on the side of the road
Standing small by the old grey oak
I live in the slipstream, I was left out
When the dream came in
And all of this time I was building my home
Making a place of my own
But now it?s all gone, now it?s all come down
Just like the straw house that the wolf blew down
Rept. chorus
Inst.
Yea I lived on the side of the road
Standing small by the old grey oak
Yea I lived in the slipstream, but I?ll be gone
Now the dream has come in...
