Karaoke The Fields of Athenry Dominic Kirwan

By a lonely garden wall
I heard a young girl calling
Michael they are taking you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn so the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters Mary when you're free
Against the famine and the Crown
I rebelled they ran me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
By a lonely harbor wall she watched the last star falling
As the prison ship set sail against the sky
But she lives and hopes and prays
For her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
