Only one song from each artist
Well, I’m caught one more time
Up on Cyprus Avenue
Caught one more time
Up on Cyprus AvenueAnd I’m conquered in a car seat
Not a thing that I can do
I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill
Yeah
All is quiet on New Year’s Day
A world in white gets underway
I want to be with you
Be with you, night and day
Nothing changes on New Year’s Day
On New Year’s DayI will be with you again
I will be with you again

Well Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born
He played it from the night time to the peaceful early morn
He soothed the souls of psychos and the men who had the horn
And they all looked very happy in the morningNow Jimmy didn’t like his place in this world of ours
Where the elephant man broke strong men’s necks
When he’d had too many powers
So sad to see the grieving of the people that he’s leaving
And he took the road for god knows in the morning

I pictured a rainbow
You held in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw then plan
I wondered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon!
The whole of the moon!

Sleep
Like a pillow
Down(ward)
And

She won’t care

Seven more hours in Belfast
The pound so old it’s a pity
Okay, there’s the Trident in Bangor
And then you walk back to the cityWe ain’t got nothin’ but they don’t really care
They don’t even know you know
They just want money
We can take it or leave it
What we needIs an alternative ulster
Grab it, change it, it’s yours
Get an alternative ulster
Ignore the bores and their laws

Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven’t changed, haven’t much to say
But man, I still think those cats are greatThey were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazyThe boys are back in town

Let grasses and waters flow in a free and easy way,
But give me enough of the rare old stuff that’s brewed near Galway Bay,
Come policemen all from Donegal,Sligo and Leitrim too,
Oh, we’ll give them the slip and we’ll take a sip
Of the rare old Mountain DewChorus
Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um,diddly-doo-ri-diddlum-deh
Hi di-diddly-idle-um, diddly-doodle-idle-um,diddly-doo-ri-diddlum-deh

Are teenage dreams so hard to beat
Everytime she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighbourhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so goodI wanna hold her wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

As I was a goin’ over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Saying “Stand and deliver” for he were a bold deceiverChorus:
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o
There’s whiskey in the jarI counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy(Chorus)
I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure ‘t was no wonder
But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter(Chorus)
’twas early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier
But I couldn’t shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken(Chorus)
Now there’s some take delight in the carriages a rolling
and others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
but I take delight in the juice of the barley
and courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early(Chorus)
If anyone can aid me ‘t is my brother in the army
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he’ll go with me, we’ll go rovin’ in Kilkenny
And I’m sure he’ll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny
I’ve allowed 4 songs by Van Morrison, 3 by U2, The Pogues & The Waterboys, rest of them only 1 or 2.
