ciaran murphy - jamey foyers lyrics

[chorus]
oh far distant, far distant, lies foyer of the brave
no tombstone memorial stands over his grave
his bones, they are scattered in the wild hills of spain
that’s where young jamie foyers in battle was slain

he’s gone from the shipyard that stands on the clyde
his hammer lies idle, his tools cast aside
to the wide ebro river, young jamie has gone
to stand by the side of the workers of spain
there’s none was as equal at work or at play
he was strong in thе union ’til his dyin’ day
he was great at the football, at thе dancin’ and all
ah, young jamie foyers was the pride of them all
he came home from work, threw his old clothes away
i remember it well, was a bright summer’s day
he said “worry not, lassie, i’ll be home soon again”
ah but young jamie foyers in battle was slain
and in the fight for belchite he was out to the fore
and he fought at gandesa ’til he couldn’t fight no more
and when a fascist machine gun put a round through his brain
ah, young jamie died for republican spain

[chorus]
ah, far distant, far distant lies foyer the brave
no tombstone memorial stands over his grave
his bones, they are scattered in the wild hills of spain
that’s where young jamie foyers in battle was slain
