Sicilian Born
He was Sicilian born a fisherman's son Came over in '23 Worked like a dog for a couple of years Then sent for his family Well he worked on the docks and he worked on the railways He worked 'til his back was gone Bought a semi-detached in Erskineville Moved in and paved the lawn His three boys grew and married Young blonde and blue-eyed girls And soon enough there were grandkids coming To look in on his world And they were fair and blue-eyed too And to him they all looked the same If Sicilian blood flowed through their lives You'd only know it by their last name And he never talked in his native tongue もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com And he never talked about going home And he told me once the reason why He said, “Home's not where you're born Home is where a man's prepared to die” He outlived his wife Maria; she died in '82 And for a long time after he was lost for what to do He'd sit alone at the window and doze the days away So I didn't see him much anymore unless he happened to wave Still he never talked etc Well I went up North on a two-week spell about a month ago And to my surprise when I came home I found his place had sold I called the other neighbours to find out where he's gone They say, “He packed up and just went back to wherever he came from” And he never talked etc
