The Old House - Shannon Singers[00:00:01]
Written by:O'connor Frederick[00:00:02]
Lonely I wander through scenes of my childhood[00:00:18]
They bring back to memory the happy days of yore[00:00:27]
Gone are the old folk the house stands deserted[00:00:36]
No light in the window no welcome at the door[00:00:45]
Here's where the children played games on the heather[00:01:10]
Here's where they sailed their wee boats on the burn[00:01:19]
Where are they now some are dead some have wandered[00:01:28]
No more to their home will the children return[00:01:36]
Lonely the house now and lonely the moorland[00:02:01]
The children have scattered the old folk are gone[00:02:10]
Why stand I here like a ghost or a shadow[00:02:19]
Tis time I was movin' tis time I passed on[00:02:28]
Tis time I was movin' tis time I passed on[00:02:37]
