Irish Song Lyrics

SWEET SAILORTOWN SUE SEAMUS ROBINSON
 ( chorus ) Sweet Sailortown Sue , where are you today ? They've filled in the docks around the oul Quay And knocked down the streets where we used to play Ah, Sailortown Sue, where are you today ? 

(1) 'Tis well I recall those long ago times Our hearts were so young and songs still had rhymes We thought that the joy would last all our days But fate had us set to go different ways 

(2) I travelled the world and left you behind I worked on the land I worked down the mine Worked all of my life come sunshine or rain But now I'm worn out and back home again 

(3) The news that I heard , you'd left Sailortown To the bright lights you'd gone in search of a pound And somebody saw you working the street Selling your love to each guy you'd meet 

(4) I'm old and I'm grey my time's nearly done The curtain must fall the last race is run I've lived my life long I've lived my life true Sweet Sailortown Sue I'm lonely for you
