Another sloppy, Guinness-fuelled live recording.
Sally straps her back-pack on - ties up her shoes.
Her Daddy's on the doorstep with the daughter that grew up too soon.
She's going to see ther world before it gets too late.
He doresn't want to see her go but he knows he's going to anyway.
Let 'em go - let 'em go
You got to learn to let them go.
Let 'em go oh let 'em go
If you lve 'em, got to let them go.
Billy's on the back foot - he's all at sea
His wife's found comfort in the arms of a better man than he could every be.
His heart is broken but what must be must be
In his heart he knows he's got to set the girl free.
Let 'em go etc.
And Johny's on his final bed - and Betty's by his side.
She feels the tears of sixty years bottled up behind her burning eyes
She says dammit won't the angels please forgive me
Won't you show a little mercy this one time please
But this is tearing me apart - could you see it in you hearts
To set my Johnny free?
Let 'em go .....
