Johnny Connors - Christy Moore[00:00:00]

My name is Johnny Connors I am a traveling man[00:00:14]

My people have been traveling[00:00:21]

Since time it first began[00:00:24]

With my horse and covered wagon[00:00:28]

And my family by my side[00:00:32]

Grazing the long acre[00:00:35]

I traveled far and wide[00:00:39]

I met Bridie Maughan my sweet wife[00:00:42]

On a fair day in Rathkeale[00:00:47]

She was the finest traveling girl[00:00:50]

That ever wore a shawl[00:00:55]

We worked the tin around Galway on up to Ballinasloe[00:01:00]

For a traveler with a horse to sell[00:01:07]

It was the place to go[00:01:10]

We sold the old linoleum[00:01:14]

Swapped carpets for old pine[00:01:17]

But as the years passed on[00:01:21]

The traveling life got harder all the time[00:01:23]

Where have all the halting places gone[00:01:28]

All them friendly doors[00:01:33]

Where we'd haul spring water[00:01:36]

From the well and sell paper flowers[00:01:38]

Now it's guards and jailers[00:01:45]

And JCB's to roll big boulders in[00:01:47]

Temporary dwellings are prohibited[00:01:53]

Innocent little traveling children lost out on them streets[00:02:00]

Sons and Daughters on the wine[00:02:07]

And lying round me feet[00:02:10]

As they try to dull the hurt and pain[00:02:13]

The rejection that's imposed[00:02:18]

Travelers are not wanted here[00:02:21]

But there's no place left to go[00:02:26]

My name is Johnny Connors I am a traveling man[00:02:31]

I've taken everything that's been thrown at me[00:02:37]

Now I'm going to take a stand[00:02:41]
