Paddy's Lament - Sinéad O'Connor (西尼德·奥康娜)[00:00:00]
Well it's by the hushc me boys and that's to mind your noise[00:00:05]
And listen to poor Paddy's sad narration[00:00:16]
I was by hunger stressed and in poverty distressed[00:00:28]
So I took a thought I'd leave the Irish nation[00:00:40]
Well I sold me horse and cow my little pigs and sow[00:00:53]
My father's farm of land I then departed[00:01:01]
And me sweetheart Bid McGee I'm afraid I'll never see[00:01:09]
For I left her there that morning broken-hearted[00:01:17]
Hear me boys now take my advice[00:01:25]
To America I'll have yous not be coming[00:01:32]
There is nothing here but war[00:01:39]
Where the murderin' cannons roar[00:01:43]
And I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin[00:01:47]
Well myself and a hundred more to America sailed over[00:01:55]
Our fortunes to be making we were thinkin'[00:02:02]
When we got to Yankee land they put guns into our hands[00:02:10]
Saying "Paddy you must go and fight for Lincoln"[00:02:17]
Hear me boys now take my advice[00:02:26]
To America I'll have yous not be coming[00:02:33]
There is nothing here but war[00:02:41]
Where the murderin' cannons roar[00:02:44]
And I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin[00:02:48]
General Meagher to us he said "If you get shot or lose your Head[00:02:59]
Every mother's son of yous will get a pension"[00:03:07]
Well in the war I lost me leg and all I've now's a wooden peg[00:03:14]
By my soul it is the truth to you I mention[00:03:22]
Hear me boys now take my advice[00:03:29]
To America I'll have yous not be coming[00:03:38]
There is nothing here but war[00:03:45]
Where the murderin' cannons roar[00:03:48]
And I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin[00:03:53]
Well I think meself in luck if I get fed on Indianbuck[00:04:04]
And old Ireland is the country I delight in[00:04:12]
To the Devil I would say God curse Americay[00:04:20]
For in truth I've had enough of their hard fightin'[00:04:27]
Hear me boys now take my advice[00:04:36]
To America I'll have yous not be coming[00:04:42]
There is nothing here but war[00:04:50]
Where the murderin' cannons roar[00:04:53]
And I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin[00:04:58]
I wish I was at home[00:05:06]
I wish I was at home[00:05:09]
I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin[00:05:13]
