My heart was warm with family love as I slipped into a
Chair
beside my uncle john, my daughters 'cross the table there
I'd walked the docks in misty rain, a pain was in my legs
but I'd seen the dream of kinsmen in the boats of Killybegs
the banter of my uncle and my daughters filled the air and
The
gunning brothers?(Donegalers) next to us were glad that we
Were there
I was kind of quiet listening at the window ledge
for the music of the harbor, the birds of Killybegs
down the coast not far was Galway land of joys (Joyce) and
Kinnamar?
at their (after) supper and asleep we would visit? (be
Goin') there tomorrow
I worried if my words would e'er be sung by Irishmen
or out (rot) here on the docks??
like the fish of Killybegs
a radio was playing though we never heard a word (I don't
Think this phrase is right)
but the rhythm of the music was familiar if absurd
and harkning
(a heightening) intensity? for silence did I beg
oh what a song was playing in the air of Killybegs
I couldn't quite believe it for it sounded rather strange
the instruments were different and the key had been changed
I reached to turn the volume up then teetered on my legs
A girl from Tipperary sang my song in Killybegs
a girl from Tipperary sang my song in Killybegs
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is an American musical group formed in Long Beach, California in 1966. Considered pioneers of country rock, they have blended folk and bluegrass influences with more modern sounds, creating a unique and recognizable sound. Among the founding members are Jeff Hanna (vocals, guitar), Jimmie Fadden (drums) and John McEuen (mandolin, banjo). Over the years, the lineup has seen the alternation of several musicians, but Hanna and Fadden have remained constant since the band's inception. Among their most important albums is "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" (1972), a work that marked a turning point in the band's career and helped to spread the country rock sound worldwide. Other representative songs include "Fishin' in the Dark", "Long Hard Road", and "Mr. Bojangles". The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band continues to be active, releasing new albums and touring.
