Fields of Athenry Lyrics

Dropkick Murphys ? Fields of Athenry (by griesas) -- tone2@gmx.de
Intro:
Strophe1:
By a lonely prison wall,
I heard a young girl calling
Michael, they have taken you away,
For you stole Trevelyans corn,
So the young might see the morn.
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay.
Refrain:
Low lie the fields of Athenry.
Where once we watched the small free birds fly.
Our love was on the wing,
we had dreams and songs to sing
Its so lonely round the fields of Athenry
Strohe 2:
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters, Mary, when youre free!
Against the famine and the crown,
I rebelled, thy cut me down.
Now you must raise our child with dignity.
Refrain:
Strohe 3:
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling.
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
Sure shell wait and hope , for her love in Botany Bay
Its so lonely round the fields of Athenry
Refrain:
