When my love said to me meet me down by the gallowtree for it's sad news I bring about this old town and all that it's suffering. Some say troubles are abound. Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down. One day we'll return here when the Belfast child sings again
Brothers, sisters where are you now as I look for you right through the crowd. For all my life here I have spent with my faith in god and church and the government. Some say troubles are abound. Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down. One day we'll return here when the Belfast child sings again
Come back Billy, won't you come on home ? Come back Mary, you've been away so long. The streets are empty and your mother's gone. The girls are crying and it's been o so long. And your father's calling come on home, won't you come on home, come on home. Come back people, you've been gone a while. And the war is raging through the emarald isle. But that's flesh and blood, man, that's flesh and blood. The girls are crying but all's not lost. The streets are empty 'cause the streets are cold. Won't you come on home, won't you come on home ? The streets are empty. Life goes on. One day we'll return here when the Belfast child sings againTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
