[00:30.74] |
When my love said to me |
[00:37.71] |
Meet me down by the gallow tree |
[00:43.89] |
For it's sad news I bring |
[00:50.13] |
About this old town and all that it's offering |
[00:56.28] |
Some say troubles abound |
[01:03.12] |
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down |
[01:10.97] |
One day we'll return here, |
[01:15.85] |
When the Belfast Child sings again |
[01:32.49] |
Brothers sisters where are you now |
[01:38.95] |
As I look for you right through the crowd |
[01:44.49] |
All my life here I've spent |
[01:50.73] |
With my faith in God the Church and the Government But there's sadness abound |
[01:58.26] |
Some say troubles abound |
[02:03.46] |
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down |
[02:11.30] |
One day we'll return here, |
[02:16.08] |
When the Belfast Child sings again |
[02:29.64] |
When the Belfast Child sings again |
[03:50.39] |
Some come back Billy, won't you come on home |
[03:55.97] |
Come back Mary, you've been away so long |
[04:01.72] |
The streets are empty, and your mother's gone |
[04:07.79] |
The girls are crying, it's been oh so long |
[04:13.47] |
And your father's calling, come on home |
[04:19.14] |
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home |
[04:37.39] |
come back people, you've been gone a while |
[04:43.03] |
And the war is raging, in the Emerald Isle |
[04:49.25] |
That's flesh and blood man, that's flesh and blood |
[04:54.66] |
All the girls are crying but all's not lost |
[05:01.47] |
The streets are empty, the streets are cold |
[05:06.51] |
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home |
[05:20.48] |
The streets are empty |
[05:30.94] |
Life goes on |
