Aww way back in the day when I was still livin' in Queens,
Barely hip to the hopper Run DMC,
Me 'n my baby Perez,
Kickin' back with a six pack of Guinness,
X-wing fighters flyin' off of the bus,
Too fast like we got perennies on us,
To everyone we was one in the same,
Like brothers sharin' a name,
Then many years on down the line,
We torin' needles in his eye,
All the sudden like out of the sky,
Turn around angry to dry,
What what what what what you show no sign,
I never knew this friend of mine,
Yeah knew this friend of mine,
Yeah yeah,
I got so much trouble on my mind,
Though I don't try to be unkind,
Sometimes it gets way out of line,
But now it's too low!
Yeah you blow my mind,
Don't want your face around,
Yeah what just went down,
Don't want your face around…

Remember the time we watched kung-fu together,
Couldn't play outside because of bad weather,
Back then I knew you was my best friend,
Somehow I needed that right now,
Boilin' up like a roller in a crack pipe,
Goin' up on the gate for the whole shot,
Redlined twelve amped up pistons,
Gimme teeth so I can put my fist in,
There is nothing left of you and me,
The bird has flown out of the tree,
Long gone and nothin' is the same,
Blowed up like a face with no name,
What what what what what whatcha wanna do?
Cause I don't believe whatcha do,
Yeah believe whatcha do yeah yeah,
I got so much trouble on my mind,
Though I don't try to be unkind,
Sometimes it gets way out of line,
But now it's too low!
Yeah you blow my mind,
Don't want your face around,
Yeah it kills the sound,
When you hang around,
(Ooh why did you turn?),
And kick me to the ground now,
Yeah just one down,
Don't want your face around…

At times I dream of better days,
When we was chillin' in the place,
Now I live within a sound,
And you will never bring me down,
(Yeah!),
I got so much trouble on my mind,
Though I don't try to be unkind,
Sometimes it gets way out of line,
But now it's too low!
Yeah you blow my mind,
Don't want your face around,
Yeah it kills the sound,
When you hang around,
(Ooh why did you turn?),
And kick me to the ground now,
Yeah just one down,
Don't want your face around…

Tell me why must a man be of service
To his lord and the gods seldom high
From the grave sprang the name of our fathers
But there's no glint in a dead man's eye
Tell me why our fields filled with hunger
And fruitless the crop bittered soil
So I say my farewell to a nation
As the leaf waves goodbye to its sun

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
I must leave what I left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

Tell me why must our peace be this puzzle
That fractures the land splinters war
The last nail sank the shame on our coffin
But in the end we must all die alone

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
Some must leave what they left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

And the bark fell from tree
To the ground that now bleeds
On the anguish that never learnt to shout
When the clash of the drum will surrender the gun
And of this sadness we shall no longer speak

Until tank and the bomb are but all forgotten songs
That's when I and we will sing again
So goodbye to my love
My sweet Roisin Dubh
Goodbye now until we meet again

Tell me why must our grief still be grieving
For a language that never spoke it's loss
But this tongue spit with fire will tear down the barbwire
And rip the belly from the waxy ghost

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
We must leave what we left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

Until we meet again
She'll rise to beautify
But slumber now must rest
O' my Roisin Dubh I'll forever love
The youth you once possessed
