[00:00.42]The Broad Majestic Shannon—The Pogues
[00:07.29]The last time I saw you was down at the Greeks
[00:09.79]There was whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks
[00:12.86]You sang me a song as pure as the breeze
[00:15.85]Blowing up the road to glenaveigh
[00:18.79]I sat for a while at the cross at finnoe
[00:21.48]Where young lovers would meet when the flowers were in bloom
[00:24.60]Heard the men coming home from the fair at shinrone
[00:27.98]Their hearts in tipperary wherever they go
[00:30.36]Take my hand, and dry your tears babe
[00:35.82]Take my hand, forget your fears babe
[00:41.40]
[00:41.95]There's no pain, there's no more sorrow
[00:46.20]
[00:47.56]They're all gone, gone in the years babe
[00:53.26]
[00:58.26]I sat for a while by the gap in the wall
[01:01.08]Found a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball
[01:04.08]Heard the cards being dealt, and the rosary called
[01:06.54]And a fiddle playing sean dun na ngall
[01:09.79]And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks
[01:12.86]There'll be whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks
[01:15.67]For it's stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl
[01:18.54]About a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball
[01:22.30]
[02:08.44]So I walked as day was dawning
[02:13.56]Where small birds sang and leaves were falling
[02:18.94]
[02:19.49]Where we once watched the row boats landing
[02:24.87]
