Duke Special - From Clare To Here lyrics

Well there's four who share the room as we work hard for the craic Sleeping late on Sundays and we never get to Ma** It's a long, long way from Clare to here When Friday comes around Terry's only into fighting I promised ma a letter home but I'm too tired for writing It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way and it gets further by the day It's a long, long way from Clare to here It almost breaks my heart when I think of Josephine I promised I'd be coming home with pockets full of green And the only time I feel alright is when I'm into drinking It sort of heals the pain a bit and levels out my thinking It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way and it gets further by the day It's a long, long way from Clare to here I sometimes hear a fiddle play, maybe it's a notion I see the white horses dance upon that other ocean It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way from Clare to here It's a long, long way and it gets further by the day It's a long, long way from Clare to here
