The Blackbirds of Mullamore

歌詞

Oh come all ye brave young fellows that wander by this way If you call in for to have a glass, there's a reckoning you must pay I'll supply you with a good friend, and your cheques'll join encore And you'll see my blackbird clocking on the hills of Mullaghmore Well, it's for your loyal blackbird; she is the best of game Her off-spring are well proven in America, France and Spain Her cheque has gained her credit upon manys a foreign shore Now she's sitting clocking on the hills of Mullaghmore Well, it's for your loyal blackbird; they didn't use her well And the hardship she has lived now, there's no mortal man can tell When her cage door it was opened, they rushed them in a score And they put my blackbird from clocking on the hills of Mullaghmore So our blackbird's going to leave us now, which grieves the neighbours all And I hope she'll have good fortune until on her we do call She's going over yonder mountain for to rest in a fine still And she'll found her summer season at the foot of Sheep hill And our blackbird's coming home again but not to the same place And I hope your friends and neighbours will not bring to her such disgrace For the lovely lark and linnet and the thrush will join encore For to welcome home our blackbird to the hills of Mullaghmore
