Walking out on a stormy day
|
The cold wind the fine sea spray
|
Looking out over galway bay
|
The troubled sky all dark and grey
|
Farm from these shores there stands liberty
|
So let it be
|
But every while I would remember the day we drank
|
|
Moonshine in the rain
|
And raised our glasses to the wind
|
The day that we dreamed we could be free
|
Riding the wings of liberty
|
So here's one for our children
|
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
|
And moonshine on our lips
|
|
So we paid our dues
|
ANd we packed our bags
|
Made it thought Ellis Island's ranks
|
Across the waves to America
|
Hearts and soulds to the streets and starts
|
Far from our shores we found liberty
|
So let it be
|
But every while I would remember the day we drank
|
|
Moonshine in the rain
|
And raised our glasses to the wind
|
The day that we dreamed we could be free
|
Riding the wings of liberty
|
So here's one for our children
|
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
|
And moonshine on our lips
|
|
So we made our way
|
Throught the cumberland gap
|
Appalacha never looking back
|
Through the wind and rain
|
But nothing evermore would feel the same
|
|
All of our life we strive to be free
|
So let it be
|
But every while I would remember
|
The day we drank
|
|
Moonshine in the rain
|
And raised our glasses to the wind
|
The day that we dreamed we could be free
|
Riding the wings of liberty
|
So here's one for our children
|
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
|
And moonshine on our lips
|
|
Moonshine in the rain
|
And raised our glasses to the wind
|
The day that we dreamed we could be free
|
Riding the wings of liberty
|
So here's one for our friends
|
ANd here's one our children
|
Feeling the cold rain on your fingertips
|
And moonshine on our lips
|
