The Town I Loved So Well (我曾深爱的小镇) - The Dubliners/Davey Arthur[00:00:00]

In my memory I will always see[00:00:18]

The town that I have loved so well[00:00:27]

Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall[00:00:35]

And we laughed through the smoke and the smell[00:00:43]

Going home in the rain running up the dark lane[00:00:52]

Past the jail and down behind the fountain[00:01:00]

Those were happy days in so many many ways[00:01:08]

In the town I have loved so well[00:01:17]

In the early morning the shirt-factory horn[00:01:25]

Called women from craigeen the moor and the bog[00:01:33]

While the man on the dole played the mother's role[00:01:42]

Fed the children and then trained the dogs[00:01:50]

And when times got rough there was just about enough[00:01:58]

But they saw it through without complaining[00:02:06]

For deep inside was a burning pride[00:02:15]

And the town I loved so well[00:02:23]

There was music there in the derry air[00:02:31]

Like a language that we could all understand[00:02:39]

I remember the day when I earned my first pay[00:02:48]

When I played in the small pick-up band[00:02:56]

There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth[00:03:04]

I was sad to leave it all behind me[00:03:12]

For I'd learned 'bout life and I've found a wife[00:03:20]

In the town I loved so well[00:03:29]

But when I returned how my eyes have burned[00:04:10]

To see how a town could be brought to its knees[00:04:19]

By the armoured cars and the bombed-out bars[00:04:27]

And the gas that hangs on to every breeze[00:04:35]

Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall[00:04:43]

And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher[00:04:51]

With their tanks and their guns[00:05:00]

Oh my god what have they done[00:05:04]

To the town I loved so well[00:05:08]

Now the music's gone but I carry on[00:05:16]

For their spirit's been bruised never broken[00:05:24]

They will not forget for their hearts are aset[00:05:32]

On tomorrow and peace once again[00:05:40]

For what's done is done and what's won is won[00:05:48]

And what's lost is lost and gone forever[00:05:56]

I can only pray for a bright brand new day[00:06:05]

In the town I loved so well[00:06:13]
