It was G1962, I was Ctwo years out of Dschool

When I Ggot on board a boat that was Cbound for LiverDpool

The Gday we sailed away I reCmember it so Dwell

Took a Glook at the North EmWall and Dbid a fond fareGwell

It's a Ghard thing to leave the Cland of your Gchildhood

Touched by the rivers and Emkissed by the Csea

The Gplaces you Dplayed with your Cchildhood comGpanions

To Cleave dear old GIreland and DMother Mo GChro?

Though I'm Ggoing far away and I may Cnever reGturn here

There's one thing I always will Emkeep within Cme

GDeep in my Dheart a Cfurious deGvotion

The Clove of old GIreland and DMother Mo GChroi

On the Gtop of the Pentonville Road I Csaw the sun Gsetting

The town laid out before me looked Embeautiful to Cme

GAway from all the Dsighing, the Csuffering and the Gdying

I Cdreamed of the Gfuture, the Dyoung and the Gfree

But the Gyears they go by quickly, now I Cknow I can't reGmain here

Where each day brings me closer to that Emfinal miserCy

My Gkids will never scrape Dshit round here, and I Cwon't die crying in a Gpint of beer

I'm Cgoing back to GIreland and DMother Mo GChro?
