Black clouds scudding 'cross the midland sky
In the bedroom mirror Sandy catches her eye
Full of tears to watch that Texan's car fade away
In the distance

He was telling her before the mine's closing down
Husband Jimmy now will be home everyday
The company's pullin' out and he's heading home
To his own family way back in Galveston

Chorus:
And he handed her a blue green bangle
That he found in the hills outside Slane
Said someday when this is all forgotten
You can pick it up and think of me again

"Well he's gone" she said "he has his plunder done
And I'll only be remembered as the Irish one"
With that she opened up the windows wide
And flung the blue green bangle
Far down the muddy drive

Later she awoke with a rattle on the door
Stands her husband Jimmy and her uncle Joe
Linked together singing some wild rebel songs
From so long ago

Jimmy looked at her with a twinkle in his eye
Says "a gyppo gave me this for you, a surprise
Says whoever wears it will live contentedly
Provided they don't tell any lie"

And he handed her a blue green bangle
That he found outside on the muddy drive
And she dropped her wrist and he slipped it on
He was glad it fitted her so fine

And he handed her a blue green bangle
That laid in the earth for so long
And he grabbed her by the waist
And he whisked her round the place
While Uncle Joe diedled out the door

Black clouds scudding 'cross the midland sky
In the bedroom mirror Sandy catches her eye
Full of tears to watch that Texan's car fade away
In the distance

He was telling her before the mine's closing down
Husband Jimmy now will be home everyday
The company's pullin' out and he's heading home
To his own family way back in Galveston

And he handed her a blue green bangle
That laid in the earth for so long
And he grabbed her by the waist
And he whisked her round the place
While Uncle Joe diedled out the door

(repeat verse)
