Letra da Música People's Park de Ian Matthews

Mary's crying, drowning in her tears
She stuck a piece of cotton in the little one's ears
Woody left town six days ago
He ain't a-coming home for all he knows
Mary's crying, trying to stat calm
Kneeling in the red dirt, screaming up a storm
And Woody don't care, sleeping in the fields
Says he gotta stay put till the conflict heals

And Woody's song splits the dark
To peel away the years
Mary's gone to people's park
To reel in Woody's fears

Mary's crying, it's on uphill climb
She's tearing at her roots for the thirteenth time
Woody's got a handle on what's going wrong
He's gonna light a fire with a union song

Still Mary' crying, pining for her man
Says she's gonna write him every chance she can
But Woody don't care, he's taking his time
Just praying for the boys on the government lines

And Woody's song splits the dark
To peel away the years
Mary's gone to people's park
To reel in Woody's fears

Mary's crying, poking at her fear
It'll all seem distant this time next year
Woody's in deep, it's a pretty big deal
Carving out a groove for the kids next meal
Thought she heard his song on the radio
It was something 'bout a fight
'bout a migrant war

And Woody's song splits the dark
To peel away the years
Mary's gone to people's park
To reel in Woody's fears
