Spancil Hill Last night as I lay dreamin' Of pleasant days gone by Me mind bein' bent on rambling To Ireland I did fly I stepped on board a vision and I followed with the wind Till first I came to anchor at The cross at Spancil Hill It being the 23rd of June The day before the fair Where Ireland's sons and daughters And friends assembled there The young, the old The brave and the bold came Their duty to fulfill At the parish church near Clooney A mile from Spancil Hill I went to see my neighbours to See what they might say The old ones were all dead and gone The young ones turning grey I met the tailor Quigley He's as bold as ever still He used to mend my britches when I lived in Spancil Hill I took a flying visit to my one and only love She's as white as any lily As gentle as a dove She threw her arms around Me, saying "Johnny, i love you still" She is Nell, the farmer's daughter The pride of Spancil Hill I dreamt I held and kissed her As in the days of old Saying, "Johnny, you're only joking As many's the time before" But the cock, he crew in the morning He crew both loud and shrill I awoke in California Many miles from Spancil Hill

The Fields of Athenry 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" 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" 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 harbour wall She watched the last star falling As that prison ship sailed out against the sky For she lived in hope and pray For her love in Botany Bay It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry 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

Flight of Earls I can hear the bells of Dublin In this lonely waiting room And the paperboys are singin' in the rain Not too long before they take us To the airport and the noise To get on board a transatlantic plane We've got nothin' left to stay for We have no more left to say And there isn't any work for us to do So farewell, you boys and girls Another bloody Flight of Earls Our best asset is our best export, too It's not murder, fear or famine That makes us leave this time We're not going to Join McAlpine's Fusileers We've got brains, and we've got vision We've got education, too But we just can't throw Away these precious years So we walk the streets of London And the streets of Baltimore And we meet at night in several Boston bars We're the leaders of the future But we're far away from home And we dream of you beneath the Irish stars As we look on Ellis Island and The Lady in the Bay And Manhattan turns to face another Sunday We just wonder what you're doing For to bring us all back home As we look forward to another Monday Because it's not the work that scares us We don't mind an honest job And we know things will get better once again So a thousand times adieu We've got Bono and U2 And all we're missin' is the Guinness and the rain So switch off your new computers 'Cause the writing's on the wall We're leaving as our fathers did before Take a look at Dublin Airport Or the boat that leaves North Wall There'll be no Youth Unemployment anymore Because we're over here in Queensland And in parts of New South Wales We're on the seas and airways and the trains And if we see better days Those big airplanes go both ways And we'll all be coming home to you again
