专辑 | Shades Of A Blue Orphanage |
作词 : Lynott | |
When we were kids he used to go over the back wall into old dan's scrapyard | |
Into the snooker hall where most us kids were barred | |
An' into the roxy and the stella where film stars starred | |
That's where me and hopalong an' roy rogers got drunk and jarred | |
And we might have been the saviour of the men, | |
The captured captain in the devil's demon den | |
And we might have been the magic politician in some kind of tricky position | |
Like an old, old, old master musician we kept on wishin' | |
We was headed for the number one hit country again | |
{chorus} | |
And it's true | |
True blue | |
Irish blue | |
And it's true | |
True blue | |
And sometimes it reminds me of you | |
There's an old photograph of dan that i wish you could-a seen | |
Of him and the boys posed, standing in st. stephen's green | |
Ya see, they were a part of the great freedom dream | |
But they were caught and detained and are locked inside the frame | |
Of the photograph | |
And he might have been the clever con, the good samaritan, the rassclaut man | |
An' he might have been the loaded gun, the charlatan of the tap dancin' fan | |
But like an old pioneer from outer afghanistan, | |
Headed for the number one hit country again | |
{repeat chorus} | |
Old dan in a raincoat hums the very, very, very special notes | |
Of a long lost favorite melody | |
It reminds him of a love affair when he was young and did not care | |
And how he parted so soft, so sadden | |
And he might have been the laughing cavaliero, the wise old commanchero | |
Ow, the desparate desparado, the good looking randolph valentino, | |
The gigolo from glasgow | |
But like an old, old hunter of the female buffalo, | |
He's headed for the number one hit country again | |
{repeat chorus} | |
And it's true | |
True blue | |
Irish blue | |
True blue | |
Irish blue | |
And it's true | |
It's so true | |
Ummm, it's true | |
I swear i've said it | |
Swear i've said it | |
I swear i said it | |
I swear it's true | |
And it's true | |
True blue | |
Oh, its irish blue | |
And it's true... |
