I was born in Londonderry
I was born in Derry City too
Oh what a special child
To see
such things and still to smile
I know that there was something wrong
But I kept my head down
and carried on
I grew up in Enniskillen
I grew up in Innis Kathleen too
Oh what a clever
boy
To watch your hometown be destroyed
I know that would not stay long
So I kept my
head down and carried on
Who cares where national borders lie
Who cares whose laws you're
governed by
Who cares what name you call a town
Who'll care when you're six feet beneath the
ground
