[00:19.49]Danny's made his mind up
[00:23.06]He's leaving for America
[00:27.11]He's leaving for America
[00:30.05]Leaving all of us behind
[00:35.92]He says there's nothing here not drenched in beer
[00:40.12]In blood and retribution
[00:43.92]And the wealth's distribution's
[00:47.55]Been weighing heavy on his mind
[00:53.92]And he knows that he'll regret the leaving
[00:58.54]Knows that he will pine for grieving
[01:01.73]For the sky road by the singing sea
[01:05.80]And all of us behind
[01:12.54]Danny looks so lovely working in the fields
[01:20.20]Or dancing like a wild one
[01:23.26]Sparks flying around his heels
[01:29.32]But his friends all gone before him
[01:33.13]From the sacred ground that bore them
[01:37.25]Now they wonder does she scorn them
[01:41.13]For giving up the land
[01:47.07]And they know that they'll regret the leaving
[01:51.38]Know that they will pine for grieving
[01:54.94]For the sky road by the singing sea
[01:58.88]And all of us behind
[02:04.88]And I wonder does he know I love him
[02:09.44]All below and none above him
[02:12.69]As I sit here by the singing sea
[02:16.88]Alone and left behind
[02:41.38]Danny's made his mind up
[02:45.14]He's leaving for America
[02:48.89]He's leaving for America
[02:52.01]Leaving all of us behind
[02:58.14]And I wonder does he know I love him
[03:02.70]All below and none above him
[03:06.14]As I sit here by the singing sea
[03:10.01]Alone and left behind
[03:15.58]And I wonder does he know I love him
[03:20.45]All below and none above him
[03:23.83]As I sit here by the singing sea
[03:27.70]Alone and left behind
