In The Valley - Lyrics
My grandfather went down with the Montevideo
The rising sun sent him floating to his rest
And his wife fled south to Sydney seeking out safe harbour
A North Shore matron she became with some paying guests
My father went down with the curse of big cities
Traffic tolls and deadlines took him to his peace
Now Bob Dyer glued us to our seats
And lawns were always Victa neat
Whilst Menzies fawned at royal fleet do you remember?
I'm sure you remember
In the valley I walk, I took some comfort there
In the valley I walk, cold comfort I can hear you talk
In the valley I walk, who will take me there?
When my mother went down it was a stiff arm from Hades
Life surprises and tears you like the southerly
She always welcomed the spring always welcomed the stranger
I don't see too many around like this
Oh no, not many like this
In the valley I walk - who will take me there
In the valley I walk - cold comfort I can hear you talk
In the valley I walk - I took some comfort there
In the valley I walk - oh rough justice I hear you talk
In the valley I walk - I meet my watershed
To meet my watershed
I meet my watershed
To meet my watershed
I hope virtue brings it's own reward
And I hope the pen is mightier than any sword
I hope the kids will take it slow
I hope my country claims it's own
In the valley I walk - I cried yes I cried I was down then I crawled
Mercy's arms all around me when I was down there
In the valley I walk - do you read me they can hear me in the valley

The line about the mother who always welcomes the spring and a stranger seems to get me in the old cockles every time.

One of my two favorite bands that still played during my teens and 20's that I never got to see live...the other was Big Country. I hope they reunite and tour the US

I HAVE TO ADMIT THIS IS MY FAVORITE BAND FROM AUSTRALIA, OUT OF ALL THE OTHER ONES! I JUST LOVE THEIR MUSIC, PERIOD.

For those not aware, this song is actually based on truth as the grandfather of lead singer Peter Garrett really did die in the sinking of the Montevideo Maru while he was a Japanese POW in WWII.

This is a most beautiful ballad that I have just rediscovered. It is also a wonderful poem about one's parents and grandparents. I can place every word here - it speaks so perfectly to my own recollections and experiences of my family elders.

this song confirms that Midnight Oil is simply one of the most talented artists ever. There is no arguing about the incredible musical talent of this band. And the passion and emotion in every song, well there is pretty much no comparison. So sad that this band will always be known for only one song...
