Lyrics for Emerald - Live At The Hammersmith Odeon, 1981

This is number called "Emerald" Down from the Glen came the marching men With their shields and their swords To fight the fight they believed to be right Overthrow the overlords To the town where there was plenty They brought plunder, sword and flame When they left the town, it was empty Children would never play again From their graves I heard the fallen Above the battle cry By that bridge near the border There were many more to die Then onward over the mountain And outward towards the sea They'd come to claim the emerald Without it will not leave Thank you We're very proud of you (thank you) We're very proud, thank you
