21 May 04 - 10:11 PM (#1191238) Subject: Lyr Add: COUNTY DOWN (Tommy Sands) From: Lin in Kansas Lyrics posted by Guest, Sandra in this thread. There are several other Tommy Sands songs there, too. Enjoy! Lin COUNTY DOWN (Tommy Sands) When you're out walking, and there's no one near you, But a voice keeps calling and you hear your name, It's not the leaves or the whispering breezes. It's me that's calling you back again. CHORUS: Oh can you hear me? Oh can you hear me As you roam through lonely London town? When evening's falling you'll hear me calling, "Come on home now to the County Down." Do you remember the fiddlers playing, The songs and stories the whole night long? 'Tis little then that you thought of leaving. It seems so strange now that you are gone. (CHORUS) The fish are dancing on Clanrye River. The teams are sporting in old Glenvale. My heart no longer can lead the cheering. When you're not playing, it's a different game. (CHORUS) I'm always thinking that things are changing, And that they're building a factory tall, And young ones needed again in Newry, But I still need you the most of all. |

19 Mar 18 - 10:30 AM (#3911868) Subject: RE: Lyr Req/Add: County Down (Tommy Sands) From: Gabriel The words above are not quite right above. In the chorus the last line is "Come on home to the County Down." i.e. there is no 'now' in it. In the final verse, the first line is, "I'm always dreaming that things are changing," i.e. 'dreaming' not 'thinking'. |
