Black & Amber
The poor aul Ma & she hasn’t got a penny
No she hasn’t got a penny & she hasn’t got a penny
The poor aul Ma & she hasn’t got a penny
No she hasn’t got a penny to her name
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Down the Black & Amber treating strangers like they’re kings
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Sitting in the freezing wondering what the day will bring
& the Da out there & he sinking one of many
& he sinking one of many & he shouting up Kilkenny
& the Da out there & he sinking pints of plain
& he smoking 20 major with the change
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Down the Black & Amber treating strangers like they’re kings
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Sitting in the evening wondering what the day will bring
& the Ma out there & she’s working night to morning
& she’s working night to morning & she can’t afford the yawning
& the Ma out there & she’s getting the kids ready
& she hasn’t got a washer to her name.
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Down the Black & Amber treating strangers like they’re kings
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Sitting in the freezing wondering what the day will bring
& he comes home senseless & we know that we will suffer
& we know that we will suffer & we know that we will suffer
For he comes home legless & he after a fish supper
& he doesn’t hold the title to his name
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Down the Black & Amber treating strangers like they’re kings
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Sitting in the freezing wondering what the day will bring
& it’s oh so lonelyeo,
He’s left us no our owneo
Down the Black & Amber
The Mary Wallopers are one of the finests bands from the actual Irish folk scene. Playing traditional tunes with great talent and a sophisticated sense of humor ;)
I hope to be able to see them live, on a stage or on a session as soon as possible ! mael_true_x
Gosh. Someone has shapeshifted into my life.
A testament to incredible songwriting and musicianship by those with mastery of their craft, in my humble opinion.
So grateful for art that gives voice to life's experiences and dreams and all that really matters. This is music that really matters.
have heart, will listen
