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"
