The Flight of the Earls - Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

I can hear the bells of Dublin[00:00:15]

In this lonely waiting room[00:00:19]

And the paperboys are singin'[00:00:23]

In the rain[00:00:27]

Not too long before they take us[00:00:30]

To the airport and the noise[00:00:34]

To get on board[00:00:38]

A transatlantic plane[00:00:40]

We've got nothin' left to stay for[00:00:46]

We had no more left to say[00:00:50]

And there isn't any work[00:00:53]

For us to do[00:00:57]

So fare well you boys and girls[00:01:01]

Another bloody[00:01:05]

Flight of earls[00:01:06]

Our best asset[00:01:08]

Is our best export too[00:01:11]

It's not murder fear or famine[00:01:16]

That makes us leave this time[00:01:20]

We're not going to join[00:01:24]

McAlpine's Fusiliers[00:01:26]

We've got brains[00:01:31]

And we've got visions[00:01:33]

We've got education too[00:01:35]

But we just can't throw away[00:01:39]

These precious years[00:01:42]

So we walk the streets of London[00:01:47]

And the streets of Baltimore[00:01:51]

And we meet at night[00:01:54]

In several Boston bars[00:01:57]

We're the leaders of the future[00:02:02]

But we're far away from home[00:02:06]

And we dream of you[00:02:10]

Beneath the Irish stars[00:02:12]

As we look on Ellis Island[00:02:33]

And the lady in the bay[00:02:36]

And Manhattan turns to face[00:02:40]

Another Sunday[00:02:43]

We just wonder what you're doing[00:02:48]

But to bring us all back home[00:02:52]

As we look forward to another Monday[00:02:56]

Because it's not the work[00:03:03]

That scares us[00:03:05]

We don't mind an honest job[00:03:07]

And we know things will get better[00:03:10]

Once again[00:03:14]

So a thousand times adieu[00:03:18]

We've got bono and U2[00:03:22]

All we're missin'[00:03:26]

Is the Guinness[00:03:27]

And the rain[00:03:29]

So switch off[00:03:33]

Your new computers[00:03:34]

'Cause the writing's on the wall[00:03:37]

We're leaving as our fathers[00:03:41]

Did before[00:03:44]

Take a look[00:03:48]

At Dublin airport[00:03:50]

Or the boat that leaves North Wall[00:03:52]

There'll be no youth[00:03:56]

Unemployment[00:03:58]

Any more[00:04:00]

Because we're over here in Queensland[00:04:04]

And in parts of New South Wales[00:04:08]

We're on the seas and airways[00:04:12]

And the trains[00:04:15]

And if we see better days[00:04:19]

Those big airplanes go both ways[00:04:23]

And we'll all be comin' home[00:04:27]

To you again[00:04:30]
