Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nIt’s a long lonely road that has no turning
\nAnd a sad stream that never sees the sea
\nBut let the truth by known that a great unrest has grown
\nIn the green land Luke Kelly left to me<\/p>\n

Oh the young ones are all leaving Luke and none can bid them stay
\nThey’re saying that there’s more to life than this
\nIn the ignorance of man they don’t need a bond to band
\nWhen love can be destruction’s Judas kiss<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

We sing the songs of warning Luke while computers prattle on
\nEmpty echoes on the Raglan Road
\n‘Tis the famine of the mind that has always plagued our kind
\nWhen strangers reap the harvest we have sown<\/p>\n

It’s you and me again Luke we’ve seen it all before
\nThe foreign fields once more have turned to green
\nAnd with nothing but a song to face every right and wrong
\nBut I can only dream what might have been<\/p>\n
