Tekst piosenki 'The Town I Love So Well' wykonawcy Rapalje

In my memory I will always see
The town that I have loved so well
Where our school played ball by the Gas-yard wall
And we smiled through the smell and the smog
Going home in the rain, walking fast down the dark lane
Past the prison cels and down behind the fountain
Those were happy days in so many, many ways
In the town that I love so well

In the early morn' the shirt factory horn
Called the women from Graigeen, The Moor and The Bog
While their men on the dole played a mother's fair role
Fed the children, and then they walked the dog
And when times went tough there was just about enough
And they saw it all through without complaining
For there deep inside was a burning pride
For the town that I love so well

There was music there 'round the old Derry air
't Was a language that we all could understand
I remember the day when I earned my first pay
When I played in a small pick-up band
There I spent all my youth and to tell you the truth
I was sad to leave it all behind me
There I'd learned about life there I found my sweet wife
In the town that I love so well

Now when I returned, oh how my eyes got burned
To see how a city has been brought to its knees
With their armoured cars and the bombed out bars
And the gas that hangs on to any breeze
Now the Army's installed by the old Gas-yard wall
And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher
With their tanks and their guns, oh my God what have they done
To the town that I love so well

Now the music's gone, but they still carry on
For their spirit's might be bruised, never broken
They can not forget çause their hearts they are set
On tomorrow, and peace once again
For what's done that is done, and what's won it might be won
But what's lost that's lost and gone forever
I can only pray for a bright better day
For the town that I love so well
