Lyrics
In nineteen hundred and eighty six
There's not much for a chippie but swinging a pick
And you can't live on love, on love alone
So you sail cross the ocean, away cross the foam
To where you're a Paddy, a Biddy or a Mick
Good for nothing but stacking a brick
Your best mate's a spade and he carries a hod
Two work horses heavily shod
Oh I'm missing you
I'd give all for the price of a flight
Oh I'm missing you
Under Piccadilly's neon
Who did you murder, are you a spy?
I'm just fond of a drink helps me laugh, helps me cry
So I just drink red biddy for a permanent high
I laugh a lot less and I'll cry till I die
All ye young people now take my advice
Before crossing the ocean you'd better think twice
Cause you can't live without love, without love alone
The proof is round London in the nobody zone
Where the summer is fine, but the winter's a fridge
Wrapped up in old cardboard under Charing Cross Bridge
And I'll never go home now because of the shame
Of misfit's reflection in a shop window pane

I'm an irishman livening in London for the last seven years. I'm from a generation who enjoyed great education paid for by much of the money sent home by the hard working people of years gone by. Thank you. That's all I want to say.
For anyone who ever left for the work . Christy is a true Irish legend 🇮🇪
I play all these songs in bar sets!! This song hits home for me after been a heroin addict in New York for 15 years !! But I’m home In Ireland 🇮🇪 now I got lucky a lot of my mates did not !! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🎸🎸🎸🎸
Keep it up man.
Good on a ya pal stay safe.

I miss you Paul. My heart died when he died in County Laois. I am without arms to hold me all this time now. My precious Paul. 🙏🌹RIP

Came to London in the early 80.s. I’m a lucky man, worked all my 40 years, wife and 3 great daughters, I’m still here and loving life.
Christys songs about emigration hit harder when you travel yourself, thanks Christy from the Irish in Sydney
Cork's legendary songwriter Jimmy McCarthy to thank for the song, Jason.. but it was definitely Christy that brought it to life (like so many other songs)
@@poorpaddy7803 I didn’t know this, great talent
As an Australian in Australia I am a bit fed up of drunk Irish singing
Superb, haunting slide play by Declan 🤘🏼

Cardboard City isnt a thing around Charing Cross bridge anymore, but this song described it as it was.
Do u realise when this was written
I do comrade. My dad showed me round cardboard city back in the day.
🍻
Can someone tell me the comment from the audience at the end?
"Play it again" I think.
No, I think it was something else, but whatever it was it made them both laugh.
Price of a pint 🤓2024😉
I am a paddy wishing for a birthday wish
I think Bobby sands wrote this 🇮🇪
@@belfastbeatle yeah you are right
@@tommymorgan73 written by Jimmy McCarthy from Macroom in the County of Cork ..... he also wrote Bright Bue Rose .. Mystic Lipstick.... The Contender and Katie for Mary Black and NO Frontierz for Frances Black .... amazing songwriter....
@@belfastbeatle Bobby did write Back home in Derry a great song but he did borrow the music from Gordon Lightfoots Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
@@CorkRef Thanks for the clarification, John.
...who do you murder or are you a spy . ....
Anyone from Ireland was looked with suspicion
At the time
They thought everyone was in the provos
This song is about an irish serial killer Kerian Kelly who allegedly killed multiple people in London
Nope. The radio series "The Nobody Zone" about Kieran Kelly used this song because it was apt for the story but the song was written by Jimmy McCarthy, long before the Kieran Kelly story surfaced, the details of which remain quite obscure.
