| [00:16.36] |
|
| [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 |
