COUNTRY ROADS

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

REFRAIN
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eye

REFRAIN
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
 
I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road, I get a feeling
That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday

REFRAIN
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Galway girl

Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk Of a day-i-ay-i-ay I met a little girl and we stopped to talk Of a fine soft day-i-ay   And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do? Because her hair was black and her eyes were blue And I knew right then, I'd be taking a whirl Around the Salthill prom with a Galway girl   We were halfway there when the rain came down Of a day-i-ay-i-ay She asked me up to her flat downtown Of a fine soft day-i-ay   And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do? Because her hair was black and her eyes were blue I took her hand and I give her a twirl And I lost my heart to a Galway girl   When I woke up, I was all alone With a broken heart and a ticket home And I ask you now, tell me what would you do? If her hair was black and her eyes were blue 'Cause I've traveled around, I've been all over this world Boys, I ain't never seen nothing like a Galway girl

Fairytale of New York

It was Christmas Eve, babe, in the drunk tank An old man said to me, "Won't see another one" And then he sang a song, 'The Rare Old Mountain Dew' I turned my face away and dreamed about you Got on a lucky one, came in eighteen-to-one I've got a feeling this year's for me and you So, Happy Christmas, I love you, baby I can see a better time when all our dreams come true They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me You were handsome , you were pretty, queen of New York City When the band finished playing, they howled out for more Sinatra was swinging , all the drunks, they were singing We kissed on a corner, then danced through the night The boys of the NYPD choir were singing, "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out for Christmas Day You're a bum, you're ...
