1. Oh Danny boy the pipes the pipes are calling From glen to glen and down the mountain side The summer’s gone and all the flowers dying ‘Tis you ’tis you must go and I must bide
2. But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow And I’ll be there in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy oh Danny boy I love you so
3. But when ye come and all the roses falling And I am dead as dead I well may be Go out and find the place where I am lying And kneel and say an ave there for me
4. And I will hear though soft you tread above me And then my grave will warm and sweeter be For you shall bend and tell me that you love me And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
Lyrics written by English lawyer and lyricist Frederic Weatherly in Bath, Somerset in 1910. To the tune of ‘Londonderry Air.’
Go Away (And Pray)
1. Why oh why don’t you just go away, and leave me alone? You steal my stuff, but that isn’t enough, you beg me yet for more. It pleases you to hurt me so. I don’t agree with a word you say. I know that you, haven’t a clue. Suggest you go away. Suggest you go away, and pray.
2. It’s easy you just walk away, and let me sing my songs. Don’t take my stuff, I haven’t enough, I beg you take no more. It pleases you to rob me so. Why don’t you go away? You know that you really must go. Suggest you stay away. Suggest you stay away, and pray.
3. You break God’s heart. You steal his stuff, but that isn’t enough. You beg him yet for more. It pleases you, to hurt him so. You don’t agree with a word he says. I know that you, haven’t a clue. Suggest you go away. Suggest you go away, and pray.
1. When should you stop, look and listen, at where our lives should be? See My Friends, I have been saddened, A life too trivial to see. Where I have walked, others have driven, Still others have even flown.
2. Can’t you just reach, out to each other, Share a marriage of love. See me my friends, I could be saddened. A life too ill to share. Where you have ran, I’ve only stumbled, but This life is the life, I have known.
3. When should we stop, look and listen to where every life should go? See me my friends, I have been saddened, Love is a dream I can’t know. I have trusted, and others have listened, but Love is a dream, I can’t know.
1. I’ve never loved I never could My mother My brothers My sisters said I never would It came too late the reason why And no one understood
2. I have lived So full of hope My humour got me by They never laughed It came to light The reason Too late the reason why And they all thought they knew
3. The world stole my dreams The government Took it’s toll The police drove the nails in To crucify my soul Too late the reason why And no one understood
1. Have you got a name? Have you got a face? Have you got a face book? Can’t you like When you like? Do you like? Should you like? Have you got a face book?
2. Are you just a twit? Have you got the time? Are you now a tweeter? Can you spell As you type? Do you know So and so? Are you both on Twitter?
3. Have you heard the word? Have you read the blog? Have you got a word press? On you tube? Google plus? Hot mail? Wix galore. Have you got a God Though?
4. Have you heard the word? Have you read the Blog? Have you got a word press? Can you read? World in need, Not too nice, Cold as ice. Have you read my word press?
