Shades Of A Blue Orphanage - Thin Lizzy[00:00:00]
When we were kids he used to go over the back wall into old Dan's scrapyard[00:00:08]
Into the snooker hall where most us kids were barred[00:00:22]
An' into the Roxy and the Stella where film stars starred[00:00:36]
That's where me and Hopalong an' Roy Rogers got drunk and jarred[00:00:47]
And we might have been the saviour of the men [00:00:56]
The captured captain in the devil's demon den[00:01:03]
And we might have been the magic politician in some kind of tricky position[00:01:11]
Like an old old old master musician we kept on wishin'[00:01:23]
We was headed for the number one hit country again[00:01:34]
And it's true[00:01:43]
True blue[00:01:48]
Irish blue[00:01:51]
And it's true[00:01:57]
True blue[00:02:01]
And sometimes it reminds me of you[00:02:04]
There's an old photograph of Dan that I wish you could seen[00:02:13]
Of him and the boys posed standing in St Stephen's Green[00:02:26]
Ya see they were a part of the great freedom dream[00:02:39]
But they were caught and detained and are locked inside the frame[00:02:50]
Of the photograph[00:02:54]
And he might have been the clever con the good samaritan the rassclaut man[00:03:00]
And he might have been the loaded gun the charlatan of the tap dancin' fan[00:03:14]
But like an old pioneer from outer Afghanistan [00:03:28]
Headed for the number one hit country again[00:03:39]
And it's true[00:03:48]
True blue[00:03:52]
Irish blue[00:03:55]
And it's true[00:04:01]
True blue[00:04:05]
And sometimes it reminds me of you[00:04:08]
Old Dan in a raincoat hums the very very very special notes[00:04:18]
Of a long lost favorite melody[00:04:31]
It reminds him of a love affair when he was young and did not care[00:04:44]
And how he parted so soft so sadden[00:04:54]
And he might have been the laughing cavaliero the wise old commanchero[00:05:03]
Ow the desparate desparado the good looking Randolph Valentino [00:05:18]
The gigolo from Glasgow[00:05:32]
But like an old old hunter of the female buffalo [00:05:38]
He's headed for the number one hit country again[00:05:44]
And it's true[00:05:52]
True blue[00:05:56]
Irish blue[00:05:59]
And it's true[00:06:05]
True blue[00:06:09]
And sometimes it reminds me of you[00:06:12]
And it's true[00:06:19]
True blue[00:06:24]
Irish blue[00:06:27]
True blue[00:06:29]
Irish blue[00:06:30]
And it's true[00:06:33]
It's so true[00:06:35]
Ummm it's true[00:06:37]
I swear I've said it[00:06:40]
Swear I've said it[00:06:41]
I swear I said it[00:06:43]
I swear it's true[00:06:44]
And it's true[00:06:47]
True blue[00:06:51]
Oh its Irish blue[00:06:53]
