The Mountains Of Mourne - Jim McCann[00:00:00]
Composed by:Tråd[00:00:00]
Oh Mary this London's a wonderful sight[00:00:00]
With as people all working by day and by night[00:00:07]
They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat[00:00:14]
But there's gangs of them digging for gold in the street[00:00:21]
At least when I asked them that's what I was told[00:00:28]
So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold[00:00:35]
But for all that I found there I might as well be[00:00:42]
Where the mountains of mourne sweep down to the sea[00:00:49]
There's beautiful girls here oh never you mind[00:01:01]
Beautiful shapes nature never designed[00:01:08]
Lovely complexions all roses and cream[00:01:15]
But O'Loughlin remarked with regard to the same[00:01:22]
That if at those roses you venture to sip[00:01:28]
You might fine that all come away on your lip[00:01:35]
Don't be startin' them fashions oh Mary Macree[00:01:42]
Where the mountains of mourne sweep down to the sea[00:01:49]
You remember young darling with cluren of course[00:02:01]
Well he is over here at the rest of the force[00:02:08]
I met him oneday as I 'cross to the strand[00:02:15]
And he stopped the curst with wan wave of his hand[00:02:22]
And there we stood talkin' of days that are gone[00:02:29]
The whole town of London store still and looked on[00:02:36]
But for all these great powers he's wishful like me[00:02:43]
To be back where the dark mourne sweeps down to the sea[00:02:50]
To be back where the dark mourne sweeps down to the sea[00:02:57]
