County Down

When you're out walking

And there's no one near you

But a voice keeps calling and you hear your name

It's not the leaves or the whispering breezes

It's me that's calling you back again

Oh can you hear me

Oh can you hear me

As you roam through lonely London town

When evening's falling you'll hear me calling

Come on home now to the county down

Do you remember the fiddlers playing

The songs and stories the whole night long

'Tis little then that you thought of leaving

It seems so strange now that you are gone

Oh can you hear me

Oh can you hear me

As you roam through lonely London town

When evening's falling you'll hear me calling

Come on home now to the county down

The fish are dancing on clanrye river

The teams are sporting in old Glenvale

My heart no longer can lead the cheering

When you're not playing it's a different game

Oh can you hear me

Oh can you hear me

As you roam through lonely London town

When evening's falling you'll hear me calling

Come on home now to the county down

I'm always thinking that things are changing

And that they're building a factory tall

And young ones needed again in newry

But I still need you the most of all

Oh can you hear me

Oh can you hear me

As you roam through lonely London town

When evening's falling you'll hear me calling

Come on home now to the county down
