Lyrics Danny Boy (The John Peel Show) [December 1984] [Live] - The Pogues

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountainside
The summer′s gone, and all the leaves are falling
'Tis you must leave, ′tis you must leave and I must bide.
But come you back when summer's in the meadow
And when the valley's hushed and white with snow
′Tis I′ll be there in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
And if you come when all the leaves are dying
If I am dead, as dead I may well be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
And I will hear, tho′ soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
If you will bend and tell me that you love me
Then I will sleep in peace until you come to me
