[00:00.00] Belfast Child
[00:12.71] Bobknight
[00:16.36]
[00:30.74] When my love said to me
[00:37.71] Meet me down by the gallow tree
[00:43.89] For it's sad news I bring
[00:50.13] About this old town and all that it's offering
[00:56.28] Some say troubles abound
[01:03.12] Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down
[01:10.97] One day we'll return here,
[01:15.85] When the Belfast Child sings again
[01:32.49] Brothers sisters where are you now
[01:38.95] As I look for you right through the crowd
[01:44.49] All my life here I've spent
[01:50.73] With my faith in God the Church and the Government But there's sadness abound
[01:58.26] Some say troubles abound
[02:03.46] Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down
[02:11.30] One day we'll return here,
[02:16.08] When the Belfast Child sings again
[02:29.64] When the Belfast Child sings again
[03:50.39] Some come back Billy, won't you come on home
[03:55.97] Come back Mary, you've been away so long
[04:01.72] The streets are empty, and your mother's gone
[04:07.79] The girls are crying, it's been oh so long
[04:13.47] And your father's calling, come on home
[04:19.14] Won't you come on home, won't you come on home
[04:37.39] come back people, you've been gone a while
[04:43.03] And the war is raging, in the Emerald Isle
[04:49.25] That's flesh and blood man, that's flesh and blood
[04:54.66] All the girls are crying but all's not lost
[05:01.47] The streets are empty, the streets are cold
[05:06.51] Won't you come on home, won't you come on home
[05:20.48] The streets are empty
[05:30.94] Life goes on
