[00:00:00] The Town I Loved So Well - Johnny Logan

[00:00:03] Written by：Coulter

[00:00:16] In my memory

[00:00:21] I will always see

[00:00:25] The town that I have loved so well

[00:00:33] Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall

[00:00:41] And we laughed through the smoke and the smell

[00:00:48] Going home in the rain running up the dark lane

[00:00:57] Past the jail and down behind the fountain

[00:01:05] Those were happy days in so very many ways

[00:01:13] In the town I have loved so well

[00:01:21] In the early morning the shirt factory horn

[00:01:29] Called the women from creggan the Moor and the Bog

[00:01:37] While the men on the dole played a mothers role

[00:01:45] Fed the children and then trained the dog

[00:01:53] And when times got tough there was just about enough

[00:02:01] But they saw it through without complaining

[00:02:09] For deep inside was a burning pride

[00:02:17] In the town I loved so well

[00:02:25] There was music there in the Derry air

[00:02:33] Like a language that we all could understand

[00:02:42] I remember the day when I earned my first pay

[00:02:50] And I played in a small pickup band

[00:02:57] There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth

[00:03:05] I was sad to leave it all behind me

[00:03:13] For I learned about life

[00:03:18] I'd found my self wife

[00:03:22] In the town I have loved so well

[00:03:30] But when I returned how my eyes have burned

[00:03:38] To see how a town could be brought to it's knees

[00:03:46] By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars

[00:03:54] And the gas that hangs on to every tree

[00:04:01] Now the army's in stalled by that old gasyard wall

[00:04:09] And the d**ned barbed wire gets higher and higher

[00:04:18] With their tanks and their guns

[00:04:21] Oh god look what have they done

[00:04:26] To the town I have loved so well

[00:04:34] Now the music's gone but they stay carry on

[00:04:42] For their spirit's been bruised never broken

[00:04:50] They will not forget but their hearts are set

[00:04:58] On tomorrow and peace once again

[00:05:06] For what's done is done and what's won is won

[00:05:14] And what's lost is lost and gone forever

[00:05:22] I can only pray for a bright brand new day

[00:05:30] In the town I have loved so well
