Liam Kelly - Big Tom, The Legend Lives On lyrics

Artist: Liam Kelly

album: My Kind of Country


In a little country church yard in Orem, Mangham
Besides ever loving Rose there lies a special man
He was Ireland's county music king for more than 50 years
That April day 2018, had us all in tears
He was a legend in his time, our county music king
From his Gentle Mother debut to The Same Way He Came In
Big Tom McBride we miss him, still can't believe he's gone
Although he'll take the stage no more his music will live on
In the many crowded ballrooms throughout old Ireland
When the dance was over, Tom took time to shake our hands
We chatted and he listened, we felt he was our friend
A love that lasted through the years right up to the end
He was a legend in his time, our county music king
From his Gentle Mother debut to The Same Way He Came In
Big Tom McBride we miss him, still can't believe he's gone
Although he'll take the stage no more his music will live on
Tom was a star in England including London town
The exiles love for county roads and my worlds come down
He was that precious thing to hope all immigrants felt dear
A lamp light in the window its said, "You're welcome here"
He was a legend in his time, our county music king
From his Gentle Mother debut to The Same Way He Came In
Big Tom McBride we miss him still can't believe he's gone
Although he'll take the stage no more his music will live on

In the town of Castleblayney down in the market square
Now cast in bronze forevermore big Tom is sitting there
And if you should stop to thank him for all those years of joy
I'm sure the pleasure has been mine would be his reply
He was a legend in his time, our county music king
From his Gentle Mother debut to The Same Way He Came In
Big Tom McBride we miss him still can't believe he's gone
Although he'll take the stage no more his music will live on
Big Tom McBride we miss you still can't believe your gone
Although you take the stage no more your music will live on
Although you take the stage no more your music will live on
