Lyrics:
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl call-ing Michael they are taking you a-way____ For you stole Trevelyn's corn, so the young might see the morn Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay____ --Chorus-- Low lie the fields of Athen-ry Where once we watched the small free birds fly____ Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely round the fields of Athen-ry____ ---- By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man call-ing Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free____ Against the Famine and the Crown, I re-belled, they ran me down Now you must raise our child with digni-ty____ By a lonely harbour wall, she watched the last star fall-ing As the prison ship sailed out against the sky____ Sure she'll wait and hope and pray, for her love in Botany Bay It's so lonely round the fields of Athen-ry
