You had plenty money
Nineteen fourty one
You lost it all
And then, where do you run?
Why don′t you do right?
Like some other men do?
Get out of here and
get me some money too
Yo′sittin′ down wondering
what it′s all about
If you ain′t got no money
they will put you out
Why don′t you do right?
Like some other men do?
Just get out of here and
get me some money too
If you had prepared
twenty years ago
You wouldn′t have wand′ring
now from do′to do′
Why don′t you do right?
Like some other men do?

I was born in Dublin town
Where there was not too much going on down
For girls whose only hope
Was not to find a man who could piss in a pot
So early I heard my first guitar
And I knew I wanted to be a big star
And I told my poor worried father
Said I ain′t gonna go to school no more
Cuz see I wanna look cool and I wanna look good
With my hair slicked back and my black leather boots
Wanna stand up tall with my boobs upright
And feel real hot when the makeup′s nice
I get sexy underneath the lights
Like I wanna fuck every man in sight
Baby come home with me tonight
Make you feel good make you feel all right
I′m going away to London
I got myself a big fat plan
Gonna be a singer in a rock ′n′ roll band
And I′m gonna change everything I can
Sorry to be disappointing
Wasn′t born for no marrying
Wanna make my own living singing
Strong independent Pagan woman singing
And I feel real cool and I feel real good
Got my hair shaved off and my black thigh boots
I stand up tall with my pride upright
And I feel real hot when the makeup′s nice
I get sexy underneath them lights

John I love you
I′m ever so fond of you
Will you wait for me
′Til I am heavenly
Oh there′s much work to do
But I love you
Oh you′re tender
Your name′s a whisper
I let tears fall like rain
Apple-sized they were
All over her
And through all of those times
When you could have died
This is what you find
There′s life outside your mother′s garden
There′s life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn′t been any explosion
We′re not spinning like Dorothy
If you look now then you′ll see why
Don′t be afraid to cry
This time don′t let yourself fly
Child
Pick up those dancing shoes
Kick off those wedding blues
These are the ways
You can choose
Child you′re tender
Your name′s a whisper
There′s life outside your mother′s garden
There′s life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn′t been any explosion
We′re not spinning like Dorothy

I want to walk
Into the light
Day has turned cold
So hold back the night
What will become
Of you and I
We had a dream
Don′t let it die
Do you want to be
Do you want to be
My dying day
My darkest hour
My overdose
Cuz that′s what you′ll be
Just hold back the night
There was a time
I′m sure you′ll agree

I wanna go wallking with you
If you′d agree
I wanna do some talking with you
Where no one can see
I wanna go dancing darling
If you agree
I think I′ll feel a safe step darling
If you were with me
And when you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you′re so happy and so glad you found me
You take my rainy days and make them go away
Long time I′ve been thinking of you
Do you think of me too?
Long time I′ve been dreaming of you
Make this dream come true
Long time I′ve been wondering about this
Can this really exist
I think I feel a peaceful feeling
In the warmth of your kiss
And when you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you′re so happy and so glad you found me
You take my rainy days and make them go away
On this journey may the good lord guide us
And may the goddess dance beside us
And when you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you′re so happy and so glad you found me

he first time I saw you
I loved you
I loved you
Your face blue
Your eyes too
Your mouth too
Your mouth too
When I heard you
I wanted you
Give birth to you
Give birth to you
I made love to you
Made love to you
The great goddess
Had us blessed
The last time I saw you
I fought with you
I fought with you
I didn′t mean to
I didn′t mean to
Oh say you′ll see me
Let me say sorry
The next time I see you
I′ll love you

Love letters straight
from you heart
Keep us so near
while apart
I′m not alone in the night
When I can have all the love
that you write
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name
that you sign
And darling then
I read again
right from the start
Love letters straight
from your heart
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name
that you sign
And darling then

The phone calls
Always left me unsure
They′d never say things of their own accord
I am preoccupied
I can′t get them out of my mind
They are terrified
And if you said jump in the river I would
Because it would probably be a good idea
You′re not supposed to be here at all now
It′s all been a gorgeous mistake
Sick one or clean one
The best one
That God ever made
When I kissed you
You didn′t mind
I thought I tasted of too many cigarettes
But you tasted like wine
And I′m not going to change my mind
Just because of what they said
The worm has laid eggs in their hearts
But not in my head
And if you said jump in the river I would
Because it would probably be a good idea
You′re not supposed to be here at all now
It′s all been a gorgeous mistake
Sick one or clean one
The best one

Each of these
My three babies
I will carry with me
For myself
I ask no one else will be
Mother to these three
And of course
I′m like a wild horse
But there′s no other way I could be
Water and feed
Are not tools that I need
For the thing that I′ve chosen to be
In my soul
My blood and my bones
I have wrapped your cold bodies around me
The face on you
The smell of you
Will always be with me
Each of these
My three babies
I was not willing to leave
Though I tried
I blasphemed and denied
I know they will be returned to me
Each of these
My babies
Have brought you closer to me
No longer mad like a horse
I′m still wild but not lost
From the thing that I′ve chosen to be

Margareth Thatcher on TV
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Beijing
It seems strange that she should be offended
The same orders are given by her
I′ve said this before now
You said I was childish and you′ll say it now
";Remember what I told you
If they hated me they will hate you";
England′s not the mythical land of Madame George and roses
It′s the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds
And I love my boy and that′s why I′m leaving
I don′t want him to be aware that there′s
Any such thing as grieving
Young mother down at Smithfield
5 am, looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was ";please";
These are dangerous days

Sunday is gloomy,
My hours are slumberless,
Dearest the shadows
I live with are numberless
Little white flowers will
never awaken you
Not where the black coach
of sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thought of
ever returning you
Would they be angry
if I thought of joining you
Gloomy Sunday.
Sunday is gloomy
with shadows I spend it all
My heart and I have
decided to end it all
Soon there′ll be flowers
and prayers that are sad,
I know, let them not weep,
let then know
that I′m glad to go
Death is no dream,
for in death I′m caressing you
With the last breath of my
soul I′ll be blessing you
Gloomy Sunday
Dreaming
I was only dreaming

I′m not no red football
To be kicked around the garden
No no
I′m a red christmas-tree ball
And I′m fragile
I′m not no animal
Though I am to you
I′m not no crocodile
Like the one in Dublin Zoo
Who lived in a cage
the length and breadth of his body
When a window which people would look through
And throw coins on his back to taunt him
′though he couldn′t move
Even if he wanted to
I′m not no animal in the zoo
I′m not no whipping boy for you
You may not treat me like you do
I′m not no animal in the zoo
My skin is not a football for you

Young woman with a drink in her hand
She like to listen to rock and roll
She moves with the music
′Cause it never gets old
It′s the only thing
That never gets old
Young man in a quiet place
Got a hawk on his arm
He loves that bird
Never does no harm
It′s the only thing
That never can do no harm
Must be the only thing
That never can do no harm
Sun setting on the avenue
Everyone walks by

Out of Ireland I have come
Great hatred and little room
Maimed us at the start
And now home just breaks my heart
To America I have come
I hope to bring your preacherman
Home to show my people how they can
Get their names back in the book of the life of the lamb
I know that I have done many things
To give you reason not to listen to me
Especially as I have been so angry
But if you know me maybe you would understand me
Words can′t express how sorry I am
If I ever caused pain to anybody
I just hope that you can show compassion
And love enough to just please listen
Out of Ireland I did run
Great hatred and little room
Aimed to break my heart
Wreck me up and me all apart
To America I have come
I hope to find a good preacherman
Who can show me how I can
Get my name back in the book of the life of the lamb
I bring these blessings with me
A strong heart full of hope and a feeling
That everything in this world would be okay

I′m full of good intentions
Like I never was before
It′s too late for prevention
But I don′t think it′s too late for the cure
So you call in your minions
And see what you can find
Night time or morning
These hands are sticky but I don′t mind
Why must you always be around?
Why can′t you just leave it be?
It′s done nothing so far but destroy my life
You cause as much sorrow dead
As you did when you were alive
I never said I was tough
That was everyone else
So you′re a fool to attack me
For the image that you built yourself
Just sounds more vicious
Than I actually mean
I really am soft
Yes, I′m tender and sweet
Why must you always be around?

We used to go out
walking hand in hand
You told me all the big
things you had planned
It wasn′t long
till all your dreams came true
Success put me in second
place with you
You have no time
to love me anymore
Since fame and fortune
knocked up on our door
And i spend all
my evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home
If we could share
an evening now and then
I′m sure we′d find true
happiness again
You never hold me
like you used to do
Oh, it′s funny what success
has done to you
You have no time to
love me anymore
Since fame and fortune
knocked up on our door
And i spend all my
evenings all alone
Success has made a failure of our home
Success has made a failure of our home

See the child
With the golden hair
Yet eyes that show the emptiness inside
Do we know
Can we understand just how he feels
Or have we really tried
See him now
As he stands alone
And watches children play a children′s game
Simple child
He looks almost like the others
Yet they know he′s not the same
Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh no
See him stare
Not recognizing the kind face
That only yesterday he loved
The loving face
Of a mother who can′t understand
what she′s been guilty of
How she cried, tears of happiness
the day the doctor told her it′s a boy
Now she cries tears of helplessness
and thinks of all the things he can′t enjoy
Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh no
Only he knows how to face the future hopefully

I hope you′re happy now...
...I could never make you so...
you were a hard man...
no harder in this world
you made me cold and you made me hard
and you made me the thief of your heart
Winter is cold...oh!
But you′re colder still
and for the first time
I feel like you′re mine
I share you with the one who will
mend what falls apart
and turn a blind eye
to the thief of your heart
Ohhh you lost
Ohhh you lost all
you lost all
you lost all
I′ll never wash these clothes
I want to keep the stain
Your blood to me is precious
nor would I spill it in vain
your spirit sings
though your lips never part
singing only to me
the thief of your heart

I′m circling around the Sun
Hoping for a chance to see
You above everyone
To rescue me from this heat
I′m wating for night to fall
And it′s been days
Are you sorry yet?
You took our one and final breath
When the flag was halfway down
Just look at me now...
Oooooh- It′s like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin
Oooooh- Won′t you help me out of the state I′m in
Oooooh- I can′t stand myself since you′ve been gone
There′s nothing there to lean upon
Walk into a photograph
That waiter took so well
Oooh if I could only laugh
Like that girl did at some hotel
I call out to anyone
But not too loud
I′m not ready yet
To share the phone or TV set
It′s long way to come
Out of this one...
Oooooh- It′s like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin
Oooooh- Won′t you help me out of the state I′m in
Oooooh- I can′t stand myself since you′ve been gone

I′m feelin′mighty lonesome,
haven′t slept a wink
I walk the floor and watch
the door and in between
I drink black coffee
Love′s hand me down broom
I′ll never know a Sunday
In this weekday room
I′m talkin′ to the shadows
One o′clock till four
And Lord, how slow
the moments go
When all I do is pour
black coffee
Since the blues caught my eye
I′m hangin′out on Monday
my Sunday dreams to dry
Now a man is born to go a lovin′
A woman′s born to weep and fret
To stay at home and
tend her over
And drown het past regrets
in coffee and cigarettes!

All babies are born saying God′s name
Over and over,
All born singing God′s name
All babies are flown from the Universe
From there they′re lifted by the hands of angels
God gives them the stars to use as ladders
She hears their calls
She is mother and father
All babies are born out of great pain
Over and over
All born into great pain
All babies are crying
For no-one remembers God′s name
All babies are born saying God′s name
Over and over,
All born singing God′s name

I have a universe inside me
Where I can go and spirit guides me
There I can ask oh any question
I get the answers if I listen
I have a healing room inside me
The loving healers there they feed me
They make me happy with their laughter
They kiss and tell me I′m their daughter
I′m their daughter
They say
You have a little voice inside you
It doesn′t matter who you think you may be
You′re not free if you don′t know me
If you don′t know me
See I′m not the lie that lives outside you
And it doesn′t matter what
You think you believe
You′re not free if you don′t know me
If you don′t know me
See I am the universe inside you
You come to me and I will guide you

How insensitive
I must have seemed
when he told me
that he loved me.
How unmoved and cold
I must have seemed
when he said it
so sincerely.
Why, he must have asked
did I just turn and
stare in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do?
when a love affair is over?
Now he′s gone away
and I′m alone with
the memory of
his last look.
Vague and drawn
and sad, I see it still
All the heartbreak
of his last look.
Why, he must have asked
would I just turn
and stare in icy silence?
What was I to say?
What can you say?
when a love affair is over?
Why, he must have asked

All apologies
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
I′m married
Buried
Buried
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything′s my fault
I′ll take all the blame
Aqua sea-foam shame
Sunburn with freezer-burn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun

After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy I′ll awake
With no Bromo Seltzer handy
I don′t even shake
Men are not a new sensation
I′ve done pretty well I think
But this half-pint imitation
Put me on the blink
I′m wild again
beguiled again
a simpering whimpering child again
bewitched bothered and bewildered
Am I
couldn′t sleep, and wouldn′t sleep
when love came and told me
I shouldn′t sleep
Bewiched bothered and bewildered
Am I
lost my heart, but what of it?
he is cold, I agree
he can laugh, but I love it
Because the laugh′s on me
I′ll sing to him, each spring to him
And long for the day
when I′ll cling to him,
Bewitched bothered and bewildered
Am I.
He′s a fool and don′t I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I′m in love and don′t I show it
like a babe in arms
I′ve sinned a lot
I′m mean a lot
But I′m like sweet seventeen a lot
bewitched bothered and bewildered
Am I
I′ll sing to him
Each spring to him
And worship the trousers

We came here across the great divide
Into the city, slander all eyes
We found a great love as we fell inside
They could not touch us as we′d go by
I′ve seen you the first time in Trogny′s bar
But I′ll see you later, we′ll talk of black
We′ll meet up for sure, oh will we not?
Away from all of the friends that you′ve got
Oh no, oh no
I said don′t call me sir
just call me Joe
Don′t call me lady
Just call me Joe
Don′t call me mister
Oh, just call me Joe
Don′t call me sweetheart
Just call me Joe
You wear the best clothes that I′ve ever seen
I′ve seen your light and your poetry
And it′s the best thing that there′s ever been
You′re both the beauty and the beast
That′s how it is and that′s how it end
Into another city where you live far away
That′s how it is and that′s how it end
You′ve seen my face but you′ve never heard my name

Couldn′t sleep, so I went down walking
Thinking about you and hearing us talking
and all the things I should have said
Echo now inside of my head
I feel something falling from the sky
I′m so sad I made the angels cry
Tears from the Moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Tears from the Moon…
Tears from the Moon…
It′s just ain′t fair, the state we call loving
When one′s still there
The other feels nothing
I would have done anything for you
I still love you, baby I ′dore you
All the day I keep from falling apart
But at night when the sky gets dark
Tears from the Moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Stop! Stop haunting me!
It should be easy
As easy as when you stopped wanting me...
Eeeh…
Tears from the Moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Tears from the Moon
Fall down like rain
But tears from the Moon
Can′t wash away the pain
Tears from the Moon…
Tears from the Moon…
Tears from the Moon…

It seems like years since you held the baby
While I wrecked the bedroom
You said it was dangerous after Sunday
And I knew you loved me
He thinks I just became famous
And that′s what messed me up
But he′s wrong
How could I possibly know what I want
When I was only twenty-one?
And there′s millions of people
To offer advice and say how I should be
But they′re twisted
And they will never be any influence on me
But you will always be
You will always be
If I treated you mean
I really didn′t mean to
But you know how it is
And how a pregnancy can change you
I see plenty of clothes that I like
But I won′t go anywhere nice for a while
All I want to do is just sit here
And write it all down and rest for a while
I can′t bear to be in another city
One where you are not
I would return to nothing without you
If I′m your girlfriend or not
Maybe I was mean
But I really don′t think so
You asked if I′m scared
And I said so
Everyone can see what′s going on
They laugh ′cause they know they′re untouchable

Once I had a secret love
That lived within
the heart of me
All too soon
my secret love
Became impatient
to be free
So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers
often do
Just how wonderful
you are
And why I′m so
in love with you
Now I shout it
from the highest hill
Even told
the golden daffodils
At last my heart′s
an open door
And my secret love′s
no secret anymore
Now I shout it
from the highest hill
I Even told

A lark born only for you
Who sings only to you

For only to adore you
My heart is for you

My love

For only the loss of you
The hurting of you

Soon these tears will have cried
All loneliness have died

A Perfect Indian is he
Remembering him life is sweet
Like a weeping willow
His face on my pillow
Comes to me still in my dreams
And there I saw a young baby
A beautiful daughter was she
A face from a painting
Red cheeks and teeth aching
Her eyes like a wild Irish sea
On a table in her yellow dress
For a photograph feigned happiness
Why in my life is that the only time
That any of you will smile at me
I′m sailing on this terrible ocean
I′ve come for my self to retrieve
Too long have I been feeling like Lir′s children
And there′s only one way to be free
He′s shy and he speaks quietly
He′s gentle and he seems to me
Like the elf-arrow
