The Contender (竞争者) - Christy Moore[00:00:00]

When i was young and I was in my day[00:00:11]

I could steal what womans heart there was away[00:00:18]

Sing and dance into the dawning[00:00:25]

Blaze a trail until the morning[00:00:29]

Long before I was the man you see today[00:00:33]

And I was born beneath the star that promised all[00:00:41]

I could have lived my life between cork cobh and youghal[00:00:48]

But the wheel of fortune took me[00:00:55]

From the highest point she shook me[00:00:59]

By the bottle live by the bottle i shall fall[00:01:03]

But there in the mirror on the wall[00:01:10]

I see the dream is fading[00:01:17]

From the contender to the fall[00:01:23]

The ring the rose the matador raving[00:01:32]

And when I die I'll die a drunk down on the street[00:01:41]

You can count me out to ten in clear defeat[00:01:48]

Rap the stary plough around me[00:01:55]

Let the pipers air resound me[00:01:59]

There I'll rest until the lord of love I meet[00:02:03]

But there in the mirror on the wall[00:02:10]

I see the dream is fading[00:02:17]

From the contender to the brawl[00:02:23]

The ring the rose the matador raving[00:02:32]

Rap the starry plough around men[00:02:56]

Let the pipers air resound me[00:03:00]

There I'll rest until the Lord of love I'll meet[00:03:03]
