pete st. john - the fields of athenry lyrics

Loading...

by a lonely prison wall, i heard a young girl call-ing
michael they are taking you a-way____
for you stole trevelyn’s corn, so the young might see the morn
now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay____

–chorus–
low lie the fields of athen-ry
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 athen-ry____
—-

by a lonely prison wall, i heard a young man call-ing
nothing matters, mary, when you’re free____
against the famine and the crown, i re-belled, they ran me down
now you must raise our child with digni-ty____

by a lonely harbour wall, she watched the last star fall-ing
as the prison ship sailed out against the sky____
sure she’ll wait and hope and pray, for her love in botany bay
it’s so lonely round the fields of athen-ry
