《Shades Of A Blue Orphanage》歌词

[00:00:08] When we were kids he used to go over the back wall into old

[00:00:14] Dan's scrapyard

[00:00:22] Into the snooker hall where most us kids were barred

[00:00:36] An' into the Roxy and the Stella where film stars starred

[00:00:47] That's where me and Hopalong an'

[00:00:49] Roy Rogers got drunk and jarred

[00:00:56] And we might have been the saviour of the men

[00:01:03] The captured captain in the devil's demon den

[00:01:11] And we might have been the magic politician in some kind of tricky position

[00:01:23] Like an old old old master musician we kept on wishin'

[00:01:34] We was headed for the number one hit country again

[00:01:44] And it's true

[00:01:48] True blue

[00:01:53] Irish blue

[00:01:57] And it's true

[00:02:01] True blue

[00:02:04] And sometimes it reminds me of you

[00:02:13] There's an old photograph of Dan that I wish you could-a seen

[00:02:26] Of him and the boys posed standing in St Stephen's Green

[00:02:44] Ya see they were a part of the great freedom dream

[00:02:50] But they were caught and detained and are locked inside the frame

[00:02:55] Of the photograph

[00:03:01] And he might have been the clever con the good samaritan the rassclaut man

[00:03:15] An' he might have been the loaded gun the charlatan of the tap dancin' fan

[00:03:40] But like an old pioneer from outer Afghanistan

[00:04:01] Headed for the number one hit country again

[00:04:18] Old Dan in a raincoat hums the very very very special notes

[00:04:31] Of a long lost favorite melody

[00:04:50] It reminds him of a love affair when he was young and did not care

[00:05:04] And how he parted so soft so sadden

[00:05:18] And he might have been the laughing cavaliero the wise old commanchero

[00:05:24] Ow the desparate desparado the good looking Randolph Valentino

[00:05:33] The gigolo from Glasgow

[00:05:39] But like an old old hunter of the female buffalo

[00:05:45] He's headed for the number one hit country again

[00:05:53] And it's true

[00:05:57] True blue

[00:06:06] Irish blue

[00:06:16] True blue

[00:06:20] Irish blue

[00:06:29] And it's true

[00:06:34] It's so true

[00:06:35] Ummm it's true

[00:06:40] I swear I've said it

[00:06:42] Swear I've said it

[00:06:43] I swear I said it

[00:06:45] I swear it's true

[00:06:48] And it's true

[00:06:51] True blue

[00:06:54] Oh its Irish blue

[00:06:56] And it's true
