CARRY ME lyrics
When you're standing by the roadside
And it's a long way to go
Ah, to carry me
to carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
Oh, to carry me
Together in this mad land
far from truest of hands
well I'll carry you
if you'll carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
Oh, carry me
And we'll petrol Bomb the state
we'll blow away the hate
But we'll do it in our minds
If we can take the time
we'll build ourselves a road
from what we know
each take our part
and now's the time to start
Oh yea take
Oh it must be
Oh it must be
Oh it must be
But Jane's taking Heroin
and Paul is getting pissed
Steve is getting stoned
to fucked to fight
Sarah's on the Acid
and Sean has blown his mind
someone's busy hiding
to fucked to fight
Yea, Some have found religion
and some have run away
and some they formed a party
to find a way
Yea, some joined the system
some just look away
and some just bite their backsides
to find a way
And there is a way ...
Yes, there is a way ...
Yes, there is a way ...
When you're standing by the roadside
and it's a long way to go
Well I'll carry you
if you'll carry me, carry me, carry me, friend
well I'll carry you

Rhys Broadbere 💚🙏💚
❤️
nick shaw ❤️
Same here I know how it feels and it fucking sucks this song make me cry so much
Seems hard to believe that my love for the Levellers is over 30 years old and still as strong as ever.
37 now. They take me back to being 17 drinking and smoking when things where simple
@@maybe-xh8il yep those were the days
@@maybe-xh8il Same
Same here :) They were playing this when I was a child of 17/ 50 now and it s still very dear to my heat
With you 👍🏻❤️🙏🏻
Love of Levellers is a magical feeling..
What great memories of the 90s! Time of my life followed this band around the country,always loved their vibe of freedom! Mark still has such a fantastic voice luv him! ❤
I first heard this when I was a kid, about 17 maybe. Full of hope and innocence. Still love it at nearly 50.
My uncle loved and introduced me to these guys... He recently passed bless his sole x
turns out.. after his funeral.. I find myself here everyday. I'm not coping like I thought I would :(
@@olddongaming8170 ❤🩹 hope you're doing ok now
I will never fall out of love with this ✌🏽️
Me neither
Almost 20 years ago I was visiting Germany while I was doing my doctorate, I fell asleep with the TV on but in the middle of the night their music, this song, woke me up, they were giving a concert, I had never heard them before ... since then I am one more fan and always searching some new song from them...
Thanks to all those people who werent afraid to pick up Irish hitchhikers back in 1990s . England by the back roads and long summer evenings good times .
I used to drive for mile an miles in my bosses car for work and this is the album he played needless to say “Carry me friend” !
Upon the shoulder of giants?? Your boss can't have bin too bad...👍😂
One of my favourite levellers songs.
Back at Solfest this year....Goosebumps. I havnt been a few year but I'm definitely going now... Loved the Levellers since I was 8 year old....Made a shitty year better...See you all in the fields xx
Definitely a song for all the black sheep of the family and old souls liberation is self realisation letting go of the illusions of mind and society simply drop everything and be as you are let go of personal identity ego persona know thy true state of being this is peace this is liberation peace is not external its inward stop giving attention to society to thoughts it's a very simple thing ,obviously you can still do all tasks that need to be done but remain in self in the ever present timeless now life becomes more harmonious when stillness emptiness is known ,namaste ❤️ let there be peace let there be love for all life universal ❤️ om 🕉 shanti shanti shanti if you want to know your true nature look up Sri ramana maharshi, Sri nisagadatta maharaj, on you tube totally free no techniques no imagination no spiritual gymnastics just be they only point to the absolute
Hi have seen this band so menu times never fail to give a great night love them keep going levellers X 💜
Im gonna cry tears of joy this song is so great
I Do Every time thinking of all the friends lost to time when we used to play this album around a campfire somewhere...
@@artvanwag3257 your not alone brother i think many feel the same when listening to this
Grew up listening to these tunes there timeless belting tune
There's only one of life........ Levellers Forever!!🎼💃🎶🎧🕺💚
Loving abroad from the UK for 8 years now. Memories are so mixed. The feelings of positive and negative are so extreme. It’s quite tricky to summarise, it’s not nationalism but there is so much to miss, and so much to get away from.
Back in the day, must be 10 years ago, I watched a band play this live on a spring afternoon in Bath’s cobbled streets, having a beer and soaking up the atmosphere. It’s shit like this we miss, memories buried but not forgotten.

I understand this entirely. When you leave England for any significant amount of time (I lived in India for five years) you get an entirely different perspective. I was homesick as hell while living in a tropical paradise! You wake up quickly when abroad though as you are not bombarded with BBC or TV in general. I still don't own a TV to this day x
So true. I've been in Italy for 8 years. Never think it's all pizza and ice cream (although both are delicious!). Again, I couldn't be less nationalistic. There's something about the Levellers that is, essentially, British. Oh England My Home...
This was played at my nephew funeral r.i.p jalan kolodynski x
Fantastic!
Muy buena rola. Es una mezcla entre la música urbana y la medieval. Saludos desde México!!
Thank you Steve cooper and his brother for introducing me to this stuff many years ago...still gets played full crank....❤️
This is the 1st levellers song my wife learnt to sing, I love you so much, and i will carry you my friend xxx
the band are amazing.. tell it as it is..
This And Men a Tol are my fave Levs choons oh yeah and Elation. To anyone who hasn't seen them live, you are missing something really special. They have got an immense back catalogue now. May they carry on forever. 💛💚💜💙❤
I would like to thank all those awesome people who have picked me up hitchhiking across the UK. Special thanks to the two Dorset police officers who took me into Somerset and bought me dinner. Thank you all you lorry drivers, Dad's who had a daughter my age and the gentleman who let me ride in the sidecar of his motorbike 💙
Sounds like an awesome time, most of the time, anyway! Love, from Skye on TDS
@@retriever19golden55 Hi Skye, hope you're well 💙

My old mate PAUL WALLACE. Sunnyside removals farnborough
What harmonica do you use, id really love to get one and learn this song
I've done some Ks to this . Truck on Steady.
Harmonica tab?
BOOM
Can somebody please tell me what key Harmonica this is in, I got an Eb (flat) in 1st position as a forum said that what it was in, but it's not from what I can tell-cheers
the record is slightly pitch shifted, probably because the band wanted to change the tempo slightly post recording, so that is why you can't find a pitch centre by trying to play with the recording. The piece is composed in A minor if that helps.
@@djdm2603 thanks bud, that makes sense👍

Mine too....

This is taking up with another religion i like. He not even heavy. Oh well its just me now. I like religion all of them because of love
Does it count if some one poisoned you.
They are good at isolating people who need help.
Then they wait for it. Bastards! Scoop us up like left out bread and throw everything back at us. Telling us we can blow it out our arse…
Got what they wanted and moved onto where ever.

All depends on my status
