Away Days - Irish Ballad #2

I've been away days lately

care-a-button days by the Lee

I've seen away lady sail away

&&

w/


the boys of fairhill

I sang I sang Bold Thady Quill

'tis me daza full of pep

'tid put the pencil in your lead

bedad

says I - I'll try cider I heard 'twas good

I'm no Sepera Woman waiting for a soldier boy
in Salonika

but I wait instead for the news of the threshers in the wars of Spain

and sit a quare wan down on me knee

&& call for another bottle of johnny-jump-up!
