Cavan Girl - Barnbrack[00:00:00]
As I walk the road from Killeshandra[00:00:10]
Weary I sit down[00:00:17]
For it's twelve long miles around the lake[00:00:21]
To get to Cavan Town[00:00:27]
Though Oughter and the road[00:00:31]
I go once seemed beyond compare[00:00:35]
Now I curse the time it takes to[00:00:42]
Reach my Cavan girl so fair[00:00:46]
The autumn shades are on the leaves[00:00:52]
The trees will soon be bare[00:00:58]
Each red-coat leaf around me[00:01:03]
Seems the colours of her hair[00:01:07]
My gaze replaced defies my feet[00:01:13]
And once again I sigh[00:01:18]
For the broken pool of sky reminds me[00:01:23]
The colour of her eyes[00:01:29]
At the Cavan cross each Sunday morning[00:01:44]
There she can be found[00:01:50]
And she seems to have the eye of every boy[00:01:55]
In Cavan Town[00:02:01]
If my luck will hold[00:02:05]
I'll have the golden summer of her smile[00:02:08]
And to break the hearts of Cavan men[00:02:15]
She'll talk to me awhile[00:02:21]
So next Sunday evening[00:02:26]
Finds me homeward Killeshandra bound[00:02:29]
To work the week till I return[00:02:36]
To court in Cavan Town[00:02:41]
When I asked if she would be my bride [00:02:47]
At least she'd not say no[00:02:52]
So next Sunday morning 'rouse myself[00:02:57]
And back to her I'll go[00:03:03]
