County Down
When you're out walking and there's no one near you
But a voice keeps calling and you hear your name
It's not the leaves or the whispering breezes
It's me that's calling you back again
Oh, can you hear me? Oh, can you hear me?
As you roam through lonely London town
When evening's falling, you'll hear me calling
Come on home now to the county Down
Do you remember the fiddlers playing,
The songs and stories the whole night long
It's little then that you thought of leaving
It seems so strange now that you are gone
Oh, can you hear me? Oh, can you hear me?
As you roam through lonely London town
When evening's falling, you'll hear me calling
Come on home now to the county Down
I'm always dreaming that things are changing
And that they're building a factory tall
And young ones needed again in Newry
But I still need you the most of all
Oh, can you hear me? Oh, can you hear me?
As you roam through lonely London town
When evening's falling, you'll hear me calling
Come on home now to the county Down
Come on home now to the county Down
