Karan Casey Just A Note
Just a note for the time is short, dear
Hard is the work and long the day
But my fond heart will be with you, Mary
Although you are many, many miles away
Kiss the children for me, Mary
Do not let them pine or grieve
Tell them I come working for them
How our home I had to leave
Building dams in the fields and the factories
Moving concrete by the load
Tell them I will be with you, Mary
When I am finished working on the road
Just a note for the time is short, dear
Hard is the work and long the day
But my fond heart will be with you, Mary
Although you are many, many miles away
Although you are many, many miles away
