Four Green Fields Tommy Makem & Clancy Boys

Описание: When ‪@MrBaudieBiggie1‬ asked his father to tell him about his parents that he never knew that came off the boat from Ireland, became US Citizens, worked on the Panama Canal and raised 6 children…he simply said listen to Four Green Fields and you will know them. He was right!

Four Green Fields, Author Tommy Makem
What do I have, said the fine old woman
What do I have, this proud old woman did say
I have four green fields, each one was a jewel
But strangers came and tried to take them from me
I have fine strong sons, who fought to save my jewels
They fought and they died, and that was my grief said she

Long time ago, said the fine old woman
Long time ago, this proud old woman did say
There was war and death, plundering and pillage
My children starved, by mountain, valley and sea
And their wailing cries, they shook the very heavens
My four green fields ran red with their blood, said she

What have I now, said the fine old woman
What have I now, this proud old woman did say
I have four green fields, one of them's in bondage
In stranger's hands, that tried to take it from me
But my sons had sons, as brave as were their fathers
My fourth green field will bloom once again said she
