《Cavan Girl》歌词

[00:00:00] Cavan Girl - Paddy Kelly

[00:00:08] As I walk the road from Killeshandra

[00:00:13] Weary I sat down

[00:00:16] For it's twelve long miles around

[00:00:20] The lake to get to Cavan Town

[00:00:25] Though Oughter and the road

[00:00:28] I go once seemed beyond compare

[00:00:33] Now I curse the time it takes

[00:00:37] To reach my Cavan girl so fair

[00:00:51] The autumn shades are on the leaves

[00:00:55] The trees will soon be bare

[00:00:59] Each red-coat leaf around me seems

[00:01:04] The colour of her hair

[00:01:08] My gaze retreats to find my feet

[00:01:12] And once again I sigh

[00:01:17] As the broken pools of sky remind me

[00:01:22] Of the colour of her eyes

[00:01:33] At the Cavan cross each Sunday morning

[00:01:39] Where she can be found

[00:01:42] And she seems to have the eye

[00:01:46] Of every boy in Cavan Town

[00:01:51] If my luck will hold

[00:01:53] I'll have the golden summer of her smile

[00:01:59] And to break the hearts of Cavan men

[00:02:04] She'll talk to me a while

[00:02:16] So next Sunday evening finds me homeward

[00:02:21] Killeshandra bound -

[00:02:25] To work the week till

[00:02:27] I return to court in Cavan Town

[00:02:34] When asked if she would be my bride

[00:02:38] At least she'd not say no

[00:02:42] So next Sunday morning

[00:02:44] I'll rouse myself and back to her I'll go
