Lyrics

Temperature Rise, It’s all right

Synapses fried, it’s alright

Got a banging headache and a fever

What a wonderful time to leave her

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so throw out all reason

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

So pop all those e’s in

Hold the horses and hold the phone

Hold a match to all you know

Hold a conversation and tune out

Hold on tight, don’t hold out

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so throw out all reason

Its the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so pop all those e’s in

And I know now, and I know why

And I know that it’s oh, it’s alright

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer, it seemed worth believin’

And it’s ok, it’s alright

It’s ok, no, I got it

Falling down, falling star

Falling out, no, I got it

And it’s a spell, and it’s a spark

And it’s a moonlight garden

Follow you, anywhere

Follow you, anywhere

Follow you, hold my heart out

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer so pop all those e’s in

And I know now, and I know why

And I know that it’s oh, it’s alright

It’s the Summer, it’s the season

It’s the Summer, it seemed

worth…believe in

Lyrics – George Guilfoyle

Trouble in the Fields

Nanci Griffith

Baby I know that we’ve got trouble in the fields
When the bankers swarm like locust out there turning away our yield
The trains roll by our silos, silver in the rain
They leave our pockets full of nothing
But our dreams and the golden grain

Have you seen the folks in line downtown at the station
They’re all buying their ticket out and talking the great depression
Our parents had their hard times fifty years ago
When they stood out in these empty fields in dust as deep as snow

And all this trouble in our fields
If this rain can fall, these wounds can heal
They’ll never take our native soil
But if we sell that new John Deere
And then we’ll work these crops with sweat and tears
You’ll be the mule I’ll be the plow
Come harvest time we’ll work it out
There’s still a lot of love, here in these troubled fields

There’s a book up on the shelf about the dust bowl days
And there’s a little bit of you and a little bit of me
In the photos on every page
Now our children live in the city and they rest upon our shoulders
They never want the rain to fall or the weather to get colder

And all this trouble in our fields
If this rain can fall, these wounds can heal
They’ll never take our native soil
But if we sell that new John Deere
And then we’ll work these crops with sweat and tears
You’ll be the mule I’ll be the plow
Come harvest time we’ll work it out
There’s still a lot of love, here in these troubled fields

You’ll be the mule I’ll be the plow
Come harvest time we’ll work it out
There’s still a lot of love, here in these troubled fields

Saw Doctor’s N17 – Tolu Makay and the RTÉ Concert Orchestra #GalwayLadies

N17

The Saw Doctors

Well I didn’t see much future
When I left the Christian brothers school
So I waved it goodbye with a wistful smile
And I left the girls of Tuam
And sometimes when I’m reminiscing
I see the prefabs and my old friends
And I know that they’ll be changed or gone
By the time I get home again

And I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Yes I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Travelling with just my thoughts and dreams

Well the ould fella left me to Shannon
Was the last time I travelled that road
and as I turned left at Claregalway
I could feel a lump in my throat
As I pictured the thousands of times
That I travelled that well worn track
And I know that things would be different
If I ever decide to go back

And I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Yes I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Travelling with just my thoughts and dreams

Now as I tumble down highways
Or filthy overcrowded trains
There’s no one to talk to in transit
So I sit there and daydream in vain
And behind all these muddled up problems
Of living on a foreign soil
I can still see the twists and turns on the road
From the square to the town of the tribes

And I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Yes I wish I was on that N 17
(Stone walls and the grasses green)
Travelling with just my thoughts and dreams
