Well Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born
He played it from the night time to the peaceful early morn
He soothed the souls of psychos and the men who had the horn
And they all looked very happy in the morning
Now Jimmy didn't like his place in this world of ours
Where the elephant man broke strong men's necks
When he'd had too many Powers
So sad to see the grieving of the people that he's leaving
And he took the road for God knows in the morning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey 'cause I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
The years passed by the times had changed I grew to be a man
I learned to love the virtues of sweet Sally MacLennane
I took the jeers and drank the beers and crawled back home at dawn
And ended up a barman in the morning
I played the pump and took the hump and watered whiskey down
I talked of whores and horses to the men who drank the brown
I heard them say that Jimmy's making money far away
And some people left for heaven without warning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey 'cause I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
When Jimmy came back home he was surprised that they were gone
He asked me all the details of the train that they went on
Some people they are scared to croak but Jimmy drank until he choked
And he took the road for heaven in the morning
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey 'cause I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
El texto musical SALLY MACLENNANE de POGUES también está presente en el álbum Rum, sodomy & the lash (1985)
The Pogues sono una band folk punk anglo-irlandese attiva tra gli anni '80 e '90. Fondati a Londra nel 1982 da Shane MacGowan (cantante) e Jem Finer (chitarra), il gruppo ha saputo mescolare influenze tradizionali irlandesi con un sound rock energico, creando un genere unico che li ha resi iconici. Il loro stile, definito da MacGowan stesso come «musica irlandese per un giovane pubblico rock», è caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi spesso malinconici e profondi, e una forte componente di protesta sociale. Tra i brani più famosi dei Pogues ci sono "Fairytale of New York", una collaborazione con Kirsty MacColl che è diventata un classico natalizio, "A Rainy Night in Soho" e "Streams of Whiskey". L'album "Rum Sodomy and the Lash" (1985) è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti. Nonostante le difficoltà interne e la dipendenza di MacGowan, i Pogues hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nella musica folk punk, influenzando generazioni di artisti.
