Lyrics
Well there's four who share the room, and we work hard for the crack Getting up late on Sunday, I never go to mass When Friday night comes around and he's only in the fighting My ma would like a letter home but I'm too tired for writing And the only time I feel alright is when I´m into drinking It eases of the pain a bit and levels out my thinking Well it almost breaks my heart oh, when I think of Josephine I promised I'd be coming home with pockets full of green I dream I hear a piper play and maybe it´s emotion I dream I see 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, it gets further day by day It's a long long way from Clare to here
