[00:00.00]The Mountains of Mourne - Cavan O'Connor
[00:10.02]Oh Mary this London's a wonderful sight
[00:14.23]With people here workin'
[00:16.03]By day and by night
[00:19.01]They don't sow potatoes
[00:20.89]Nor barley nor wheat
[00:23.95]But there's gangs of them diggin'
[00:25.85]For gold in the street
[00:28.91]At least when I asked them
[00:31.00]That's what I was told
[00:34.30]So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
[00:41.76]But for all that I found there
[00:44.78]I might as well be
[00:49.75]The Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea
[01:06.80]You remember young
[01:07.67]Davey Mc Clarin of course
[01:09.87]Well sure now he's round here
[01:11.46]With the rest of the force
[01:13.98]I saw him one day as I was crossin' the strand
[01:18.25]And he stopped the whole street
[01:20.08]With a wave of his hand
[01:23.54]And as we stood
[01:25.00]Talking of days that are gone
[01:29.08]The whole town of London
[01:34.29]Look on
[01:36.72]But for all his great powers
[01:39.86]He's wishful like me
[01:44.63]To be back where the dark
[01:47.45]Mourne sweep down to the sea
[02:02.03]There's beautiful girls here
[02:03.79]Oh never you mind
[02:06.75]Beautiful shapes nature never designed
[02:11.45]Lovely complexions of roses and cream
[02:15.63]But let me remark with regard to the same
[02:20.70]That if at that those roses
[02:23.43]You should venture to sip
[02:26.56]The colours might all come away on your lips
[02:35.50]So I'll wait for the wild rose
[02:39.73]That's waitin' for me
[02:45.60]The Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea
