When first I came to New York town, my eyes were
all aglow

To see the lights on Broadway, the scrapers
rimmed with snow

I fell in with some Belfast boys, I whiled the
nights away

Getting' drunk and stoned on the Boulevard in a
bar called Maggie Mae's



Oh, the liquor flowed down freely, the grass
relaxed my head

By five o'clock in the mornin' I'd be driftin'
off to bed

With an arm around my slender waist, two lips
attached to mine

I'd stare up at the ceiling while some stranger
enjoyed his time



But I'm thinkin' ever thinkin' by dark and by
day

I'm thinkin', ever thinkin' 'bout the night I
went away

When he held me to his firm young breast and
whispered, "please don't go"

Oh, I wish I was back in his own true arms where
the rain and the rivers flow



Why did I ever let you go, what more can I say

My Mother didn't care for you, the ould one had
her way

She wanted me to marry a girl from the
university

But when I lay in your arms at night I wasn't
thinkin' about your degrees



I couldn't understand the lack of your concern

For all my tears when you told me you were bound
for New York Town

At your wake I stood in the kitchen my eyes
abruised and red

And I clung to you like a baby that last night in
your bed



But I'm thinkin' ever thinkin' by dark and by
day

I'm thinkin', ever thinkin' 'bout the night I
went away

When he held me to his firm young breast and
whispered, "please don't go"

Oh, I wish I was back in his own true arms where
the rain and the rivers flow



His tears dried up quite quickly from what it
would appear

He was engaged to a girl from UCD in less than 1
full year

While I sit on the Boulevard in a bar called
Maggie Mae's

And wait for some stranger to smile at me and get
me to the next day



But I'm thinkin' ever thinkin' by dark and by
day

I'm thinkin', ever thinkin' 'bout the night I
went away

When he held me to his firm young breast and
whispered, "please don't go"

Oh, I wish I was back in his own true arms where
the rain and the rivers flow
