Johnny Connors - Christy Moore

My name is Johnny Connors I am a traveling man

My people have been traveling

Since time it first began

With my horse and covered wagon

And my family by my side

Grazing the long acre

I traveled far and wide

I met Bridie Maughan my sweet wife

On a fair day in Rathkeale

She was the finest traveling girl

That ever wore a shawl

We worked the tin around Galway on up to Ballinasloe

For a traveler with a horse to sell

It was the place to go

We sold the old linoleum

Swapped carpets for old pine

But as the years passed on

The traveling life got harder all the time

Where have all the halting places gone

All them friendly doors

Where we'd haul spring water

From the well and sell paper flowers

Now it's guards and jailers

And JCB's to roll big boulders in

Temporary dwellings are prohibited

Innocent little traveling children lost out on them streets

Sons and Daughters on the wine

And lying round me feet

As they try to dull the hurt and pain

The rejection that's imposed

Travelers are not wanted here

But there's no place left to go

My name is Johnny Connors I am a traveling man

I've taken everything that's been thrown at me

Now I'm going to take a stand
