Well there's four of us who share the room
We work hard for the brass
And getting up late on Sunday
I never get to mass
Chorus
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way from Clare to here
Oh it's a long long way it gets further day by day
It's a long long way from Clare to here
When Friday night comes around
And Eddy's only in the fighting
My Ma would like a letter home
But I'm too tired for writing
Chorus
Well it almost breaks my heart
When I think of Josephine
I promised I'd be coming back
With pockets full of green
Chorus
I dream I hear a piper play
Maybe it's emotion
I dream I see white horses dance
On that other ocean
Chorus
