Gallipoli - The Fureys

[00:00.0]Gallipoli (加利波利) - The Fureys
[00:25.85]I remember the day it
[00:28.67]Stands clear in my mind
[00:31.87]We stood down at dun laoighaire
[00:35.06]To wave you goodbye
[00:38.16]Your ma was quietly weeping
[00:40.95]There was a tear in my eye
[00:43.92]As they sent you
[00:45.62]To Gallipoli to die
[00:51.58]You looked so young as you stood there
[00:54.82]With a glint in your eye
[00:57.51]And you sang rebel songs
[01:00.65]As the streamers flew high
[01:04.13]Your ma turned away
[01:06.43]And I heard her sigh
[01:09.56]For you are sailing
[01:11.22]To Gallipoli to die
[01:15.58]You were all that we had
[01:18.63]Your mammy and me
[01:21.64]When you marched
[01:23.37]Head erect
[01:24.520004]You were proud as could be
[01:27.729996]And it killed your poor ma and it slowly killed me
[01:33.759995]When you were blown to kingdom come
[01:36.83]On the shores of Gallipoli
[01:50.66]We only got
[01:51.85]The one letter
[01:53.44]And we knew right away
[01:56.35]It said deepest regrets
[01:59.45]Your son was bold and he was brave
[02:02.62]You were only 18
[02:05.48]Yet your mammy and I
[02:08.68]Let you go to Gallipoli to die
[02:14.43]You were all that we had
[02:17.65]Your mammy and me
[02:20.67]When you marched
[02:22.37]Head erect
[02:23.53]You were proud as could be
[02:26.63]And it killed your poor ma
[02:29.68]And it slowly killed me
[02:32.66]When you were blown to kingdom come
[02:35.83]On the shores of Gallipoli
[02:40.43]You fought for the wrong country
[02:43.45999]You died for the wrong 'cause
[02:46.47]And your ma
[02:48.0]Often said you were the bravest of all
[02:52.56]All those fine young men marched
[02:55.37]To foreign shores to fight the wars
[02:58.6]When the greatest loss of all
[03:01.65]Was at home
[03:04.68]He were all that we had
[03:07.44]Your mammy and me
[03:10.53]When you marched
[03:12.15]Head erect
[03:13.49]You were proud as could be
[03:16.54001]And it killed your poor ma
[03:19.68]And it slowly killed me
[03:22.58]When you were blown to kingdom come
[03:25.66]On the shores of Gallipoli
[03:28.8]You were all that we had
[03:31.72]Your mammy and me
[03:34.75]When you marched
[03:36.45]Head erect
[03:37.67]You were proud as could be
[03:40.78]And it killed your poor ma
[03:43.82]And it slowly killed me
[03:46.83]When you were blown to kingdom come
[03:49.86]On the shores of Gallipoli
