Spancil Hill - Shannon Singers[00:00:00]

Last night as I lay dreamin'[00:00:12]

Of pleasant days gone by[00:00:16]

Me mind bein' bent on travelin'[00:00:21]

To Ireland I did fly[00:00:25]

I stepped aboard a vision[00:00:29]

And followed with my will[00:00:34]

'Til next I came to anchor[00:00:38]

At the cross near Spancil Hill[00:00:42]

It being the 23rd of June[00:00:50]

The day before the fair[00:00:54]

Where Ireland's sons[00:00:59]

And daughters[00:01:01]

In crowds assembled there[00:01:03]

The young the old [00:01:08]

The brave and the bold[00:01:10]

Their duties to fulfill[00:01:12]

At the parish church in Clooney [00:01:17]

A mile from Spancil Hill[00:01:21]

I went to see my neighbors[00:01:28]

To hear what they might say[00:01:33]

The old ones were all dead[00:01:37]

And gone the young ones turning grey[00:01:40]

I met old Tailor Quigley [00:01:46]

He's as bold as ever still[00:01:50]

He used to mend my britches[00:01:55]

When I lived at Spancil Hill[00:01:59]

I paid a flying visit to[00:02:06]

Me first and only love[00:02:11]

She's as young as any[00:02:15]

Lily and as gentle as a dove[00:02:18]

She threw her arms around me[00:02:24]

Saying 'Johnny I love you still'[00:02:28]

She's Ned the farmer's daughter[00:02:33]

And the pride of Spancil Hill[00:02:37]

I dreamt I held and kissed[00:02:45]

Her as in the days of yore[00:02:48]

She said " you're[00:02:53]

Only joking as many the time before"[00:02:55]

The cock crewed in the morning[00:03:02]

He crew both loud and shrill[00:03:07]

And I woke in California[00:03:11]

Many miles from Spancil Hill[00:03:16]
