《Smoke & Strong Whiskey》歌词

[00:00:00] Smoke & Strong Whiskey - Christy Moore

[00:00:16] Kids wear white garters and smell like their mothers

[00:00:19] Whose husbands and fathers alike

[00:00:22] Drink black beer in the same public houses

[00:00:26] Smelling of smoke and strong whiskey

[00:00:32] Mammies and daddies skipping ropes

[00:00:36] Lectures from priests living in hope

[00:00:40] That they've not mistaken the brand of their coats

[00:00:43] They've paid for by spiritual teachings

[00:00:49] A busy year this streets running red

[00:00:52] How many sent to their nuptial bed

[00:00:56] And how many sent home to a winter of graves

[00:00:59] How many wait in for the slaughter

[00:01:05] Oh the holy ground

[00:01:13] Ceud mile failte there's saints

[00:01:15] And there's scholars to see

[00:01:20] Oh the holy ground

[00:01:27] The far away hills ain't as green

[00:01:29] As they once used to be

[00:01:42] It's Easter again and we cannot forget

[00:01:46] Brothers and sisters and all that was said

[00:01:49] So practise your pipes stand proud in the wet

[00:01:53] But the eyes of the world are upon you

[00:01:58] God in his mercy has given us men

[00:02:02] To lead us to peace but they can't bring an end

[00:02:05] To the profits that pay off the lease on the land

[00:02:09] We still send them over the water

[00:02:15] Seventeen years and Kelly is a man

[00:02:18] Who stands on the street with a gun in his hand

[00:02:22] It's protecting the pipers that play in the band

[00:02:25] While the enemy waits with an army

[00:02:31] Oh the holy ground

[00:02:39] Ceud mile failte there's saints

[00:02:41] And there's scholars to see

[00:02:46] Oh the holy ground

[00:02:53] The far away hills ain't as green

[00:02:55] As they once used to be

[00:03:08] Dia le hEireann suckle the empire

[00:03:11] Dia le hEireann suffer the loss

[00:03:15] Of the green to the blue while the media feeds

[00:03:18] On the blood and the pain and the hatred

[00:03:24] Father walks home on the colourless night

[00:03:27] And the organisation has blinded his sight

[00:03:31] His wife and his kids are sleeping tonight

[00:03:35] In the arms of sweet Jesus and Mary

[00:03:40] Oh the holy ground

[00:03:48] Ceud mile failte there's saints

[00:03:50] And there's scholars to see

[00:03:55] Oh the holy ground

[00:04:02] The far away hills ain't as green

[00:04:04] As they once used to be

[00:04:09] Oh the holy ground

[00:04:16] Ceud mile failte there's saints

[00:04:19] And there's scholars to see

[00:04:24] Oh the holy ground

[00:04:31] The far away hills ain't as green

[00:04:33] As they once used to be

[00:04:38] Oh the holy ground

[00:04:45] Ceud mile failte there's saints

[00:04:47] And there's scholars to see

[00:04:52] Oh the holy ground

[00:05:00] The far away hills ain't as green

[00:05:02] As they once used to be

[00:05:07] Oh the holy ground
