After the Hole - Lyrics

All I seen is what I thought I would have seen
At the end all I found were other ends

Suddenly I know, you live to know after the hole

On the screech of the city brakes I heard your name
Feel as though we're living in a recurrent dream

Suddenly I know, you live to know after the hole

And the life is after the hole

And the life is after the hole

Strange Part of the Country

After the Hole

Old Irish Drunks - Lyrics

Well he left home one Sligo day and he kept on going until he came to a halt
And they heard nothing of their lost son since London had swallowed him up
Each night he drank himself to sleep in a town where he lived but did not belong
These streets were built by men who came from the earth then covered it up

They built these streets of Cricklewood
They built these streets of Kilburn
They built these streets of Cricklewood
And they built them good
Built them good

Living on the far edge he broke his toes in the High Road cold
His last days he told me how much he loved all he said he hated most

They built these streets of Cricklewood
They built these streets of Kilburn
They built these streets of Cricklewood
And they built them good
Built them good

And all the roads remain
And all the roads remain
And all the roads remain
And all the roads remain

Built them good
Built them good
Built them good
Built them good

Old Irish Drunks

"Si me quieres escribir"/"El frente de Gandesa"/"Ya sabes mi paradero" is one of the most popular Republican songs from the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). The melody originated during the wars against Morocco in the 1920s and the lyrics changed depending on the different fronts fighting during the Spanish Civil War. The lyrics reference famous battles, such as the Battle of the Ebro, also mentioned in the song "Ay Carmela", or the Battle of Gandesa.

The most popular recordings are by the Chilean singer-songwriter and teacher Rolando Alarcón, in his album "Canciones de la Guerra Civil española" (1968), and the Mexican singer, songwriter and actor Oscar Chávez, in "Canciones de la Guerra Civil y resistencia española" (1975). Pete Seeger also recorded a version with the folk music group The Almanac Singers, which included the also legendary Woody Guthrie, and an instrumental version appears in the main title of Ken Loach's film "Land and Freedom".
