paroles de chanson John O'Reilly - Charlie Robison
My
name
is
John
O'Reilly
and
my
father
worked
the
fields
In
the
hills
of
old
Kilarny
where
I
helped
him
turn
the
wheels
My
arms
grew
hard
as
iron
for
a
boy
of
17
And
I
used
my
fists
for
gambling
in
those
wet
Kilarny
streets
Well
the
ship
left
for
America
and
I
brought
my
pack
aboard
Said
goodbye
to
my
dear
Ireland
said
a
prayer
to
my
dear
Lord
But
I
fought
those
sorry
guineas
in
the
kitchen
they
called
hell
Well
I
fought
them
for
their
dollar
and
those
guineas
paid
me
well
Fair
thee
well
fair
dover
Fair
thee
well
your
seasons
turn
For
my
pockets
will
be
jingling
on
the
day
of
my
return
The
day
of
my
return
Well
I
fought
in
New
York
City
and
I
fought
the
Jersey
shore
My
gut
stayed
full
of
whiskey
and
my
bed
stayed
full
of
whores
Well
they
called
my
right
a
cannonball
and
my
left
they
called
the
same
And
I
left
em'
all
lyin'
half
in
blood
and
half
in
shame
Well
I
met
a
man
on
'32
and
he
stuck
out
his
hand
And
he
offered
me
a
thousand
if
I'd
fall
before
his
man
Well
I
said
it
could
be
done
but
only
for
another
two
And
he
smiled
at
me
and
nodded
as
I
stuck
it
in
my
shoe
Fair
thee
well
fair
dover
Fair
thee
well
your
seasons
turn
For
my
pockets
will
be
jingling
on
the
day
of
my
return
The
day
of
my
return
Well
they
rang
the
bell
two
times
before
I
let
him
have
my
nose
And
I
let
him
work
my
left
until
my
eye
was
swollen
closed
Then
I
let
loose
a
right
that
they
still
talk
about
today
For
that
guinea
didn't
know
that
I
had
bet
the
other
way
They
covered
every
dock
and
every
port
there
on
the
coast
Looking
for
that
double
crosser
who
had
turned
into
a
ghost
But
I
was
on
a
train
my
friend
that
rode
the
other
way
And
I'll
sail
from
California
back
to
Dublin
one
fine
day
Fair
thee
well
fair
dover
Fair
thee
well
your
seasons
turn
For
my
pockets
will
be
jingling
on
the
day
of
my
return
The
day
of
my
return
Fair
thee
well
fair
dover
Fair
thee
well
your
seasons
turn
For
my
pockets
will
be
jingling
on
the
day
of
my
return
The
day
of
my
return
