Take Me Back To Castlebar - Tara[00:00:00]

I'm waiting for john murphy's van[00:00:05]

To take me to the site[00:00:06]

I've been working seven days a week [00:00:09]

From morning to dark night[00:00:11]

And when I get into the van[00:00:13]

And gently close the door[00:00:15]

The first thing that they ask me is[00:00:18]

What I did the night before [00:00:20]

Take me back to castlebar [00:00:22]

In the county of mayo[00:00:24]

It's the only place in ireland [00:00:26]

I'm longing for to go[00:00:28]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:00:31]

And they bid you time of day[00:00:33]

When I set me foot in old mayo[00:00:35]

I never more will stay[00:00:37]

My dirty jack the ganger man[00:00:40]

He talks about the times[00:00:42]

Himself and old John Murphy[00:00:44]

Worked deep down in the mines [00:00:46]

He says he meets them often[00:00:48]

At the dorchester hotel [00:00:50]

If you want to get promotion [00:00:53]

Get down and dig like hell [00:00:55]

I'll take me back to castlebar [00:00:57]

In the county of mayo[00:00:59]

It's the only place in ireland [00:01:01]

I'm longing for to go[00:01:04]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:01:06]

And they bid you time of day[00:01:08]

When I set me foot in old mayo[00:01:10]

I never more will stay[00:01:12]

Jack from connemara [00:01:15]

When he gets in the hump [00:01:17]

He talks about the money[00:01:19]

He made while working on the lump [00:01:21]

He blames old maggy Thatcher[00:01:24]

And her government as well[00:01:25]

He says he's made his money now[00:01:28]

So they can go to hell [00:01:30]

I'll take me back to castlebar [00:01:32]

In the county of mayo[00:01:35]

It's the only place in ireland [00:01:37]

I'm longing for to go[00:01:39]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:01:41]

And they bid you time of day[00:01:44]

When I set me foot in old mayo[00:01:46]

I never more will stray[00:01:48]

There's another chap from Pakistan [00:01:50]

No higher than a duck [00:01:52]

He sells his wares upon the site [00:01:54]

They fell off the back of a truck [00:01:57]

He says he is a carpenter[00:01:59]

And that might well be true [00:02:01]

But I've never seen him working yet [00:02:03]

For he is always in Berg[00:02:05]

I'll take me back to castlebar [00:02:08]

In the county of mayo[00:02:10]

It's the only place in Ireland [00:02:12]

I'm longing for to go[00:02:14]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:02:16]

And they bid you time of day[00:02:19]

When I set me foot in old mayo[00:02:21]

I never more will stray[00:02:23]

At the duke of york on saturday night [00:02:25]

Mcgraley does remit [00:02:28]

He says he first came over here in 1938[00:02:29]

That was the year before the war[00:02:34]

If me memory serves me clear [00:02:36]

For written on the factory wall [00:02:39]

Was no Irish wanted here[00:02:41]

I'll take me back to castlebar [00:02:43]

In the county of mayo[00:02:45]

It's the only place in Ireland [00:02:47]

I'm longing for to go[00:02:49]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:02:52]

And they bid you time of day[00:02:54]

When I set my foot in old mayo[00:02:56]

I never more will stray[00:02:58]

I'll take me back to castlebar [00:03:01]

In the county of mayo[00:03:03]

It's the only place in Ireland [00:03:05]

I'm longing for to go[00:03:07]

Where they greet you with a friendly smile[00:03:09]

And they bid you time of day[00:03:12]

When I set my foot in old mayo[00:03:14]

I never more will stray[00:03:16]
