paroles de chanson The Tuam Beat - Christy Moore

Once upon a golden age singing songs was all the rage
Songs of glory, songs of fun, sad songs in an older tongue
Upon my solemn oath there'd be forty verses, note for note
Here's a song that could set us free from all that oul' history

It's got the Tuam beat it goes sugar, sugar
And the heart speaks how your mother
And the Tuam beat it goes sugar shammin'
And the heart speaks how your mammy
Singing a song, singing a song sing the same oul' song

Stall on sham, sure you're only spoofin,
Huffin' and puffin' trying to blow the roof in
I got a 'lectric guitar picks up and tremolo arm

A working, working, working man
Gates for Paddy's tailteann plan
The boys and girls twist and shout
Have some fun and dance about

Quarter past eleven, off you go
Down the palace not too slow
Heaven' all across the sky
Oh God I must reply

Tinkers minks the pavee sham
Fair play for the traveling man
His wheel broke, he settled down
He brings beauty to the town
