1
Boys and girls will see in time
2
That they were wrong to go
3
Fires don't burn at home, like they
4
Used to burn, those nights
5
Grew so long
6
[Chorus]
7
The scattering
8
(All the children say)
9
Will come again
10
(It's taken them away)
11
No seeds to fall
12
(All the children say)
13
No sons to blame
14
As one by one they left home
15
Tired old men
16
Spin tales of when
17
A man could work
18
And hold his head up high
19
Ghosts roam this town
20
With pockets full of rye they'd all fall down
21
But soon their jars all ran dry
22
[Chorus]
23
The scattering
24
(All the children say)
25
Has come again
26
(It's taken them away)
27
No seeds to fall
28
(All the children say)
29
Like better days
30
The scattering
31
(All the children say)
32
Has come again
33
(It's taken them away)
34
But if skies could fall
35
(All the children say)
36
With harvest rain
37
Then one by one,
38
They'll come home
