the scholar - maura o'connell lyrics
[verse 1]
the train from sligo moves too slow
as it brings her from the school below
she wants to be home faster than
the train from sligo ever can and
wonders where the passing time goes
creeping by the window my, oh my
it’s getting longer than it ever has before
[chorus]
eyes white as silver dollars
i can’t think why, but she’s a scholar
hold on, it seems so long
to learn what’s right from what is wrong
oh, school books and fancy collars
i might not care to be a scholar
hold on, her daddy tells her
learn to sing your song
[verse 2]
the train to sligo moves too fast
when holidays are gone at last
and winter nights arе here again
pleasе promise me you’ll write me then
it’s two long weeks till i get home
i can’t help feeling all alone
if someone doesn’t write me soon
i’ll simply fade away
[chorus]
eyes white as silver dollars
i can’t think why, but she’s a scholar
hold on, it seems so long
to learn what’s right from what is wrong
oh, school books and fancy collars
i might not care to be a scholar
hold on, her daddy tells her
learn to sing your song
[dobro solo]
[chorus]
eyes white as silver dollars
i can’t think why, but she’s a scholar
hold on, it seems so long
to learn what’s right from what is wrong
oh, school books and fancy collars
i might not care to be a scholar
hold on, her daddy tells her
learn to sing your song
