Andrea Rock & the Rebel Poets


I'm gonna wait for you daddy
Come home play marlies with me
I got your smokes and your favorite song
Come down to Hamilton Street

Doing errands for the soldiers
Few bob for sweets and new toys
There's nothing wrong with this mommy
That's what we do with the boys

You made your way to Bogside
Marching for those internees
better watch out for you Paddy
There's some fighting down the street

No more Free Derry my big son
You heard what happened last night?
Damien was hit by that bloody english truck
Struck by the army, now died

They're still there, They're still there
And I know this will not end well for me

Cold Sunday afternoon parley
Turned into bloodshed so fast
Somebody died in an alley
I can't believe it's my dad

You're still there, you're still there
While I'm calling your name

You're still there, you're still there
You're still there in my childhood memory

I'm still this Man's Wee Boy
This Man's Wee Boy
