The Mountains O'Mourne(Remastered) - The Kingston Trio

作曲：P. French/H. Collisson

Oh Mary this London's a wonderful sight

with people here working by day and by night

They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat

But there's gangs of them

diggin' for gold in the street

At least when I asked them

that's what I was told

So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold

But for all that I found there I might as well be

Where the mountains of Mourne

sweep down to the sea

I believe that when writing

a wish you expressed

as to how the fine

ladies in London were dressed

Well if you'll believe me when asked to a ball

They don't wear no top to their dresses at all

Oh I've seen them me-self

and you could not in truth

say that if they were bound

for a ball or a bath

Don't be startin' them fashions now

Mary Mccree

Where the mountains of Mourne

sweep down to the sea

There's beautiful girls here

oh never you mind

with beautiful shapes nature never designed

And lovely complexions

all roses and cream

but let me remark with regard to the same

That if at those roses you venture to sip

The colors might all come away on your lip

So I'll wait for the wild rose

that's waiting for me

In the place where the dark Mourne

sweeps down to the sea
