Artist/Band: U2
Lyrics for Song: Van Diemen's Land
Lyrics for Album: Rattle and Hum [1988]



Hold me now, oh hold me now

'til this hour has gone around

And I'm gone on the rising tide

For to face Van Diemen's land



It's a bitter pill I swallow here

To be rent from one so dear

We fought for justice and not for gain

But the magistrate sent me away



Now kings will rule and th poor will toil

And tear their hands as they tear the soil

But a day will come in this dawning age

When an honest man sees an honest wage



Hold me now, oh hold me now

'til this hour has gone around

And I'm gone on the rising tide

For to face Van Diemen's land
