Текст песни Johnny Mcguire's Wake (The Tossers) с переводом

It was 1993

When my own true love and me

And put the troubles from our mind

So it’s cause to celebrate

Said your oldest dearest mate

Said Johnny come have a drink

Before ya’s go and leave us all behind

Now I look on that good bye

It sends a shiver down my spine

It was the last words that I ever heard him speak

It was right out of the blue

And there was nothing we could do

Now we’re gathered round the front door

Smoking outside Johnny’s Wake

Oh here’s to You, Oh here’s to you

You don’t deserve what you’ve been through

And throats did crack and hands did shake

When the Parting Glass was sung at Johnny McGuire’s Wake

Oh It’s another rainy day

In every sort of way

So we fill ourselves with breakfast at John’s Dad’s

With Sausages and eggs

Then we sat and drank the dregs

Of the case of powers

Last night that we had

Then the Dubliners came on

And Luke Kelly sang a song

Of grief and loss of something we all know

Then we put him in the ground, and we turned the car around

And not one of us looked back them

The only town we know
