Seth Lakeman - Pulling Hard Against the Stream Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Wildwood Kin ]

In this world, I've gained my knowledge
And for it I've had to pay
And though I never went to college
I've heard a wise man say
Life is like a mighty river
Rolling on from day to day
Men are vessels launched upon it
And sometimes wrecked and cast away

So do your best for one another
When you're stepping in between
Help the water weary brother
Pulling hard against the stream
Pulling hard against the stream

Many a bright, good hearted fellow
Many a noble, biding man
He finds himself in water shallow
Them come on help us if you can
Some succeed at every turning
Fortune favors every steed
Others too though more deserving
Have to pull hard against the stream

So do your best for one another
When you're stepping in between
Help the water weary brother
Pulling hard against the stream
Just pulling hard against the stream

If the wind is in your favor
And you've weathered every storm
Think of those who love has labored
Never get fair wins at all

So do your best for one another
When you're stepping in between
And help the water weary brother
Pulling hard against the stream
Pulling hard against the stream
