Streets Of Derry Lyrics by The Trees

On The Shore

0

And after morning there comes an evening
And after evening another day
And after false love there comes the true love
I'll have you listen now to what I say

My love he is the finest young man
As fair as any the sun shone on
But how to save him I do not know it
For he has got a sentence to be hung

As he was marching through the streets of Derry
I own he marched up right manfully
Being much more like a commanding officer
Than a man to die upon the gallows tree

What keeps my love she saw that coming
Oh what detains her so long from me
Does she think it a shame of scandal
To see me dying upon the gallows street

He looked around and he saw her coming
But she [?]
I let them see that they dare not hang you
And I [?]
