Beeswing (Live) - Christy Moore[00:00:01]
I was 18 when I came to town[00:00:13]
They called it the summer of love[00:00:15]
Burning babies burning flags[00:00:18]
The hawks against the doves[00:00:20]
I took a job at the steaming way[00:00:23]
Down on Caltrim St[00:00:26]
Fell in love with a laundry girl[00:00:28]
That was workin' next to me[00:00:30]
Brown hair zig zagged across her face[00:00:34]
And a look of half surprise[00:00:37]
Like a fox caught in the headlights[00:00:39]
There was animal in her eyes[00:00:42]
She said to me[00:00:45]
"Can't you see I'm not the factory kind [00:00:47]
If you don't take me out of here[00:00:50]
I'll surely lose my mind"[00:00:54]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:00:56]
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away[00:01:02]
She was a lost child she was runnin' wild[00:01:07]
(She said)[00:01:11]
"So long as there's no price on love I'll stay[00:01:12]
You wouldn't want me any other way"[00:01:17]
We busked around the market towns[00:01:25]
Fruit pickin' down in Kent[00:01:27]
We could tinker pots and pans[00:01:30]
Or knives wherever we went[00:01:33]
We were campin' down the Gower one time[00:01:35]
The work was mighty good[00:01:38]
She wouldn't wait for the harvest[00:01:40]
I thought we should[00:01:42]
I said to her we'll settle down[00:01:46]
Get a few acres dug[00:01:49]
A fire burning in the hearth[00:01:51]
And babies on the rug[00:01:54]
She said "Oh man you foolish man[00:01:58]
That surely sounds like hell[00:02:00]
You might be lord of half the world[00:02:04]
You'll not own me as well"[00:02:06]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:02:10]
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away[00:02:15]
She was a lost child she was runnin' wild[00:02:20]
(She said)[00:02:25]
"So long as there's no price on love I'll stay[00:02:25]
You wouldn't want me any other way"[00:02:30]
We were drinking more in those days[00:02:38]
Our tempers reached a pitch[00:02:40]
Like a fool I let her run away[00:02:43]
When she took the rambling itch[00:02:45]
Last I heard she was living rough[00:02:48]
Back on the Derby beat[00:02:51]
A bottle of White Horse in her pocket[00:02:53]
A Wolfhound at her feet[00:02:55]
They say that she got married once[00:02:59]
To a man called Romany Brown[00:03:01]
Even a gypsy caravan[00:03:04]
Was too much like settlin' down[00:03:05]
They say her rose has faded[00:03:10]
Rough weather and hard booze[00:03:12]
Maybe that's the price you pay[00:03:16]
For the chains that you refuse[00:03:18]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:03:22]
I miss her more than ever words can say[00:03:27]
If I could just taste all of her wildness now[00:03:32]
If I could hold her in my arms today[00:03:37]
I wouldn't want her any other way I could hold her in my arms today I wouldn't want her any other way[00:03:42]
