Episode 6 Transatlantic Sessions

# Who will swallow long injustice...? #

Are you any wiser on the key there?

It may go up a half-step, possibly.

-But it doesn't sound like a problem.

-Yeah.

Beautiful.

# There are rifles buried in the countryside

# By the rising of the moon

# May they lie there long forgotten

# Till they rust away into the ground

# Who will bend this ancient hatred?

# Will the killing to an end

# Who will swallow long injustice?

# Take the devil for a countryman

# And who will say, "This far no further"

# Oh lord, if I die today?

# Send no weapons, no more money

# Send no vengeance across these seas

# Just the blessing of forgiveness

# To my new countryman and me

# Missing brothers, martyred fellows

# Silent children in the ground

# Could we but hear them, would they not tell us

# It's time to lay God's rifle down

# Who will say, "This far no further"

# Oh lord, if I die today? #

It's amazing to do something like this.

It's what every musician dreams of, isn't it Karen? Just hanging out with your pals,

who just happen to be amazing musicians and singers.

And to get the chance to spend a few days with them.

The song is the thing. I think everybody is there to serve that -

to support and facilitate what she's doing.

And so that's our job, you know?

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When mother is gone

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When mother is gone

# Motherless children have a hard time

# With all that weeping and all that crying

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When the mother is gone

# Father will do the best he can When the mother is gone

# Father will do the best he can When the mother is gone

# Father will do the best he can

# But there's so many things he just don't understand

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When the mother is gone

# People say a sister will do When the mother is gone

# People say a sister will do When the mother is gone

# People say a sister will do

# But she'll get married, turn her back on you

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When the mother is gone

# Friends won't treat you like your mother will

# When your mother is gone

# Friends won't treat you like your mother will

# When your mother is gone

# Friends will tell you what to do

# Then they'll turn their back on you

# Motherless children have a hard time

# When the mother is gone... #

This helps.

People say, "That's a fantastic sounding bass."

I said, "How does it sound now?"

Doesn't sound so hot now, does it?

My baby.

# Hi ho ro, mo ghruagach dhonn

# 'S ann ort fhein a dh'fhas an loinn

# Dh'fhag siud acaid na mo chom

# An gaol cho trom 's a ghabh mi ort

# Fhuair mi do litir Dimairt

# Dh'innseadh dhomhsa mar a bha

# Gu robh thu a' tighinn gun dail

# A-mach air bata Ghlaschu

# Nuair a leugh mi mar a bha

# Ghabh mi sios am Brumala

# Chunnaic mi a' tighinn am bat'

# 'S an t ailleagan, an ainnir, innt'

# Nuair a shin mi mach mo lamh

# Thionndaidh thu le fiamh a' ghair'

# 'S labhair thu facal no dha

# Dh'fhag iomadh trath gun chadal mi

# 'S ann ort fhein tha ghruag a' fas

# Cha dubh 's cha ruadh is cha bhan

# Ach mar an t-or as aille snuadh

# Gu buidhe, dualach, camalagach

# Dheanainn sgriobhadh dhut le peannt

# Dheanainn treabhadh dhut le crann

# Dheanainn sgiobair dhut air luing

# Air nighean donn nam meall-shuilean

# Meoir is grinn thu air an t-snath

# No cur peannt air paipear ban

# Ach ma chaidh thu null thar sail

# Dh'Astrailia, mo bheannachd leat

# Cha bhi mi tuilleadh fo leon

# Glacaidh mi te ur air spoig

# Solamh bu ghlice bha beo

# Bha aige moran leannanan

# Hi ho ro, mo ghruagach dhonn

# 'S ann ort fhein a dh'fhas an loinn

# Dh'fhag siud acaid na mo chom

# An gaol cho trom 's a ghabh mi ort

# Oh-oh-oh... #
