Testo Black Crow - Mary Coughlan
Testo della canzone Black Crow (Mary Coughlan), tratta dall'album After the Fall
There's a black crow on the high street
Silver eyes lodged into her crow's feet
She's got a black cross clutched to her crow's chest
A silver Christ nailed into her breast
From Aundre down to Sackville
She roams the grimy streets
Staking out her territory
Till she comes to the spot where the nightingale
Besieges with her warble
And weaves her magic circle
And we stand entranced and watch her
As she turns, my eye she catches
And her joy our soldiers can't contain
Or we're too embarrassed to remain
And we slouch off in the rain
Down the dank and grimy street
Past the bridge of frozen benders
On the trail of the black crow's feet
And out of stoney brogans
Going a-marching down the quays
Who should I spy but Shady Dolan
Yes, out of the corner of my eye
With some familiar ruffian
I'm just about to call them
When they join our ragamuffin crowd
Waving bottles, shouting loud
Singing "Jeremiah, here comes a down-ire
A woebegone owen-ire"
And once more I'm back on the high street
Rushing blindly past some merchant
He's singing "Goodbye, marching dark and"
On the trail of the black crow's feet
