《Spancil Hill》歌词

[00:00:00] Spancil Hill - The Wolfe Tones

[00:00:04] Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by

[00:00:13] My mind being bent on rambling to Ireland I did fly

[00:00:22] I stepped on board a vision and I followed with a will

[00:00:30] Till next I came to anchor at the cross of Spancil Hill

[00:00:39] It being on the 23rd of June the day before the fair

[00:00:48] When lreland's sons and daughters and friends

[00:00:54] Assembled there

[00:00:57] The young the old the brave and the bold came their

[00:01:02] Duty to fulfill

[00:01:06] At the parish church in Clooney a mile from Spancil

[00:01:13] Hill

[00:01:15] I went to see me neighbors to see what they might say

[00:01:24] The old ones were all dead and gone the young one's

[00:01:30] Turning grey

[00:01:33] But I met the tailor Quigley he's as bould as ever

[00:01:40] Still

[00:01:41] Ah he used to make my breetches when I lived in Spancil

[00:01:49] Hill

[00:01:59] I take a flying visit to my one and only love

[00:02:08] She's as white as any lily and as gentle as a dove

[00:02:17] And she threw her arms around me saying "Johnny I

[00:02:23] Love you still"

[00:02:26] She's Nell the farmers daughter and the pride of

[00:02:32] Spancil Hill

[00:02:35] I dreamt I held and kissed her as in the days of yore

[00:02:44] Say "Johnny you're only joking as many's the time

[00:02:51] Before"

[00:02:53] Then the cock he crew in the morning he crew both loud

[00:03:00] And shrill

[00:03:01] I awoke in California many miles from Spancil Hill
