GUEST,newfiegirl Lyr Req: My Lad Your Mother 's Dead (4) need help, finding two old songs 18 Aug 05


Hi , can anybody help with the words to these songs.
Thanks.
God Bless....newfiegirl.

I don't know the name of this one, but here are some of the words.

Just as the bells were ringing It was on the sabbath morn
Where he stood at the door of the cot were he was born
His heart was almost broken when a neighbour to him said
She's sleeping over yonder my boy your mothers dead.

And all I have on this one
It's about a man who goes out searching in the lofty pines for his wife and child or for the man who murdered them.
I believe the beginning of the song starts with "I'm a Native from Ireland"

name could be
"The lofty pines"
"I strayed beneath the lofty pines" or
"I'm a Native from Ireland"
