| I always thought it was ".....Country Road", not "..Country Roads". Did anyone else think it was Country Road - not Roads? |

I always thought it was "road". Had to Google that to make sure you weren't lying to us.
"Roads" sounds wrong. Sounds dumb. But I'm sure I could win some bets on this info. And I'd act like I'm only 90% sure that it's "roads", just to lure them in. |

It sounds like road when he sings. Maybe roads is just the name but not the lyric? |

It's an old irish marching kinda song, but it's more than that...
sorry not really on topic, it just came to me when I was reading your post.. 
| Quote: |
Let Bacchus' sons be not dismayed
But join with me, each jovial blade
Come, drink and sing and lend your aid
To help me with the chorus:
chorus:
Instead of spa, we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail;
No man for debt shall go to jail
From Garryowen in glory.
We'll beat the bailiffs out of fun,
We'll make the mayor and sheriffs run
We are the boys no man dares dun
If he regards a whole skin.
chorus
Our hearts so stout have got no fame
For soon 'tis known from whence we came
Where'er we go they fear the name
Of Garryowen in glory.
|
It's better when you hear the music that goes with the lyrics... |
