Luyện nghe bài hát The Ballad of St. Anne’s Reel

This song was first on the Autograph album. It is the only album it has been released on.

He was stranded in tiny town
On fair Prince Edward
Awaitin' for a ship to come and him
A one-horse place, a friendly
Some coffee and a trace
Of in the distance far behind him

A dime across the then
A shy hello, a new friend
A walk along the street in the wintry
A light, an open door
And a welcome friend, room for more
And they're standing there inside together

He said I've heard tune before somewhere
But I can't remember
Was it on some friendly shore
Or did I hear it on the
Was it written on the sky
I think I it from someone I loved
But I never it sound so sweet since then

Now his feet to tap
A little boy says take your hat
caught up in the magic of her smile
And leap the heart him went
And off the floor he sent
His clumsy graceful as a child

He said magic in the fiddler's arm
There's magic in town
There's magic in the dancers'
And the way put them down
People smilin'
Boots and ribbons, locks of
And laughter and old blue and easter gowns

Now the sailors' gone, the is bare
The old piano settin'
Someone's hat's hanging on the rack
And chairs, the wooden floor
That feels the touch of no more
Awaitin' for the dancers to back

And the in the closet
Of daughter of the town
The strings are broke and the bow is
And the buttoned down
But sometimes on December
the air is cold and the wind is right
There's a that passes through this town
