the barleycorn - belfast town كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
i was born in belfast town with a factory on my shoulder
where the skies are mostly grey and each winter frost gets colder
i dreamed of sunny lands where far_off fields are greener
where’s there work for all to do but no room for a dreamer

[chorus]
should i stay in belfast town, or join in emigration?
should my talents not be used for to build a better nation?
when i think of all me friends and the country i was born in
parents’ hopes and children’s dreams, do they fade away likе mornin’?

[verse 2]
in corporation street there’s a place whеre men all gather
to sign their autograph and to stand and have a natter
and when the doorman comes, he rounds them up like cattle
and if you’re not d_mn quick, you’ll get murdered in the battle

[verse 3]
well, the clerk, he is quite smart; i’m sure there is none wiser
he says now to me, “son, you’re down as a deep sea diver”
he says now to me, “son, just try not to be nervous”
“we’ll give you a gold biro for your years of faithful service.”
[chorus]
should i stay in belfast town, or join in emigration?
should my talents not be used for to build a better nation?
when i think of all me friends and the country i was born in
parents’ hopes and children’s dreams, do they fade away like mornin’?

[verse 4]
whichever path i choose, be it teacher, brickie or writer
my children must grow up to a future that is brighter
i’m sure it can’t be wrong to dream of children’s laughter
and we’ll build a better place where all men can be brothers
