[ti:Cavan Girl] [ar:The Dubliners] [al:Further Along] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Cavan Girl - The Dubliners [00:10.09]As I walk the road from Killeshandra weary I sit down [00:18.04] [00:19.10]For it's twelve long miles around the lake to get to Cavan Town [00:27.97]Though Oughter and the road I go once seemed beyond compare [00:36.35]Now I curse the time it takes to reach my Cavan girl so fair [00:44.35] [00:45.48]The autumn shades are on the leaves the trees will soon be bare [00:53.22] [00:53.97]Each red-coat leaf around me seems the colours of her hair [01:02.66]My gaze retreats defies my feet and once again I sigh [01:11.41]For the broken pool of sky reminds me the colour of her eyes [01:19.98] [01:29.22]At the Cavan cross each Sunday morning there she can be found [01:38.16]And she seems to have the eye of every boy in Cavan Town [01:46.98]If my luck will hold I'll have the golden summer of her smile [01:55.79]And to break the hearts of Cavan men she'll walk with me awhile [02:04.86]So next Sunday evening finds me homeward Killeshandra bound [02:13.92]To work the week till I return and court in Cavan Town [02:22.35]When asked if she would be my bride at least she'd not say no [02:30.67]So next Sunday morning 'rouse myself and back to her I'll go
