Going Down to Bangor Songtext
von Van Morrison

Well, I′m going down to Bangor
I want you to bring me, bring me my bucket and spade
Well, I'm going down to Bangor
Bring me my bucket and spade
I′m going down to Pickie Pool
Man, we're going in the deep end

Well, I got your letter this morning
When the sun was shining so bright
Well, I got your letter this morning
Oh, when the sun was shining so bright
I want you to know one thing
That you're the love of my life

Ah, we′re going up to Cavehill
We′re going to walk on Napoleon's Nose
Ah, we′re going up to Cavehill
We're going to walk on Napoleon′s Nose
Way up on the hillside
Where the purple heather grows
Alright


I haven't seen my cousin Billie
In such a long time
I haven′t seen my cousin Billie
Not in a long time
Well, I saw her just the other day
She was standing in a supermarket line

Well, we're going out in the Charabanc
We're just as happy as we can be
We′re going out in the Charabanc
We′re just as happy as we can be
Well, we're going to go driving
Watch the Mountains of Mourne run down to the sea

Yeah, we′re going down to Bangor
Just six miles from Donaghadee
Oh, we're going down to Bangor
Oh, some six miles from Donaghadee
I want you to sing this with me
Tra-la-la, tra-la-lee
Tra-la-la
Tra-la-la, tra-la-lee
Tra-la-la
Tra-la-la, tra-la-lee
It′s only six miles from Bangor
Oh, to Donaghadee
