Translation
Bilingual
With words as sharp as concertina
She'll cut me down when I'm in between
The man I am, what I should be
That gal of mine is low down mean
And like that wire around the pen
She'll do her work to keep me in
This broken dream she calls a life
More a warden than a wife
The hardest heart I've never seen
That gal of mine is low down mean
The hardest heart I've never seen
That gal of mine is low down mean
ย
When first we met, her face was fair
I could not see the falseness there
For then I was too young to know
And fed on lies my love did grow
Married soon, I learned my fate
Nature's truth I saw too late
The home I built became my cell
Condemned therein by her to dwell
The hardest heart I've never seen
That gal of mine is low down mean
The hardest heart I've never seen
That gal of mine is low down mean
ย
Here I lie with restless mind
By golden rings I am confined
Bound in sorrow to her will
Yet I dream of freedom still
My sentence will not endless be
She'll wake one day to find I'm free
Nothing there where long I'd been
Perhaps her heart will soften then
