《The Town I Loved So Well(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Town I Loved So Well(Live) (Live) - Paddy Reilly

[00:00:53] In my memory i will always see

[00:01:02] The town that i have loved so well

[00:01:11] Where our school played ball by the gas yard wall

[00:01:19] And they laughed through the smoke and the smell

[00:01:28] Going home in the rain running up the dark lane

[00:01:37] Past the jail and down behind the fountain

[00:01:46] Those were happy days in so many many ways

[00:01:55] In the town i loved so well

[00:02:04] In the early morning the shirt factory horn

[00:02:13] Called women from creggan the moor and the bog

[00:02:21] While the men on the dole played a mother's role

[00:02:30] Fed the children and then walked the dog

[00:02:39] And when times got tough there was just about enough

[00:02:48] And they saw it through without complaining

[00:02:57] For deep inside was a burning pride

[00:03:06] In the town i loved so well

[00:03:15] There was music there in the derry air

[00:03:24] Like a language that we all could understand

[00:03:33] I remember the day that i earned my first pay

[00:03:42] When i played in a small pick up band

[00:03:51] There i spent my youth and to tell you the truth

[00:04:00] I was sad to leave it all behind me

[00:04:10] For i learned about life and i found a wife

[00:04:19] In the town i loved so well

[00:04:28] But when i returned how my eyes have burned

[00:04:37] To see how a town could be brought to it's knees

[00:04:46] By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars

[00:04:55] And the gas that hangs on to every breeze

[00:05:03] Now the army's installed by that old gas yard wall

[00:05:13] And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher

[00:05:22] With their tanks and their guns

[00:05:27] Oh my god what have they done

[00:05:31] To the town i loved so well

[00:05:40] Now the music's gone but they carry on

[00:05:49] For their spirits been bruised never broken

[00:05:59] They will not forget but their hearts are set

[00:06:08] On tomorrow and peace once again

[00:06:17] For what's done is done and what's won is won

[00:06:26] And what's lost is lost and gone for ever

[00:06:36] I can only pray for a bright brand new day

[00:06:45] In the town i love so well
