The Bells of Rhymney Lyrics

Oh what will you give me

 

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

 

Is there hope for the future

Say the brown bells of Merthyr

 

Who made the mine owner

Say the black bells of Rhondda

 

And who robbed the miner

Say the grim bells of Blaina

 

They will plunder willy-nilly

Say the bells of Caerphilly

 

They have fangs they have teeth

 

Shout the loud bells of Neathe

 

Even God is uneasy

Say the moist bells of Swansea

 

And what will you give me

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

Put the vandals in court

 

Say the bells of Newport

 

All would be well if if if if if if

 

Say the green bells of Cardiff

 

Why so worried sisters why

Sang the silver bells of Wye

 

Oh what will you give me

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

Oh what will you give me

 

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

 

Is there hope for the future

Say the brown bells of Merthyr

 

Who made the mine owner

Say the black bells of Rhondda

And who robbed the miner

Say the grim bells of Blaina

 

They will plunder willy-nilly

Say the bells of Caerphilly

They have fangs they have teeth

 

Shout the loud bells of Neathe

 

Even God is uneasy

Say the moist bells of Swansea

 

And what will you give me

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

 

Put the vandals in court

 

Say the bells of Newport

 

All would be well if if if if if

If if if if if if if if if if

Say the green bells of Cardiff

 

Oh why so worried sisters why

Sang the silver bells of Wye

Oh what will you give me

 

 

Say the sad bells of Rhymney
