The Town I Loved So Well(Live)

The Town I Loved So Well(Live) (Live) - Paddy Reilly[00:00:00]

In my memory i will always see[00:00:53]

The town that i have loved so well[00:01:02]

Where our school played ball by the gas yard wall[00:01:11]

And they laughed through the smoke and the smell[00:01:19]

Going home in the rain running up the dark lane[00:01:28]

Past the jail and down behind the fountain[00:01:37]

Those were happy days in so many many ways[00:01:46]

In the town i loved so well[00:01:55]

In the early morning the shirt factory horn[00:02:04]

Called women from creggan the moor and the bog[00:02:13]

While the men on the dole played a mother's role[00:02:21]

Fed the children and then walked the dog[00:02:30]

And when times got tough there was just about enough[00:02:39]

And they saw it through without complaining[00:02:48]

For deep inside was a burning pride[00:02:57]

In the town i loved so well[00:03:06]

There was music there in the derry air[00:03:15]

Like a language that we all could understand[00:03:24]

I remember the day that i earned my first pay[00:03:33]

When i played in a small pick up band[00:03:42]

There i spent my youth and to tell you the truth[00:03:51]

I was sad to leave it all behind me[00:04:00]

For i learned about life and i found a wife[00:04:10]

In the town i loved so well[00:04:19]

But when i returned how my eyes have burned[00:04:28]

To see how a town could be brought to it's knees[00:04:37]

By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars[00:04:46]

And the gas that hangs on to every breeze[00:04:55]

Now the army's installed by that old gas yard wall[00:05:03]

And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher[00:05:13]

With their tanks and their guns[00:05:22]

Oh my god what have they done[00:05:27]

To the town i loved so well[00:05:31]

Now the music's gone but they carry on[00:05:40]

For their spirits been bruised never broken[00:05:49]

They will not forget but their hearts are set[00:05:59]

On tomorrow and peace once again[00:06:08]

For what's done is done and what's won is won[00:06:17]

And what's lost is lost and gone for ever[00:06:26]

I can only pray for a bright brand new day[00:06:36]

In the town i love so well[00:06:45]
