sam amidon - streets of derry lyrics
oh after the morning there comes an evening
and after the evening, another day
and after a false love there comes a true love
i’d have you listen now to what i say
my lovely years as fine a young man
as fair as any the sun show now
but how to help him i do not know it
for now he’s got a sentence to be hung
as he was marching the streets of derry
i am sure he marched upright manfully
being much more like a commanding officer
than a man to die upon the gallows trade
what keeps my love she’s so long and coming?
or what detains her so far from me?
or does she think it a shame or a scandal
to see me die upon the gallows tree
he looked around and he saw her coming
as she roads fair to her land a wind
i’ll have them know that they dare not hang you
and i’ll crown my love with a bunch of meat
