Viewing Lyrics for Fields Of Athenry:
| | | Artist: | Dropkick Murphys |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Fields Of Athenry | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 72 | | | | Lyrics: | By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
Michael, they have taken you away,
For you stole Trevelyan's corn,
So the young might see the morn.
Now a prison ship
lies waiting in the bay.
[Chorus:]
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we
watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young
man calling
Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown,
I rebelled, they cut me down.
Now you must raise our child with dignity.
[Chorus]
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star fall
As the
prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived to hope and pray for her love in Botany
Bay
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
[Chorus] | | | |
