Lyrics Christy Moore

Christy Moore

Minds Locked Shut

It happened on a Sunday afternoon

On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon

On a perfect day for walking

There was gunshots, stones and bullets

On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon

There was chaos, panic and death

Disbelief upon the faces

Fear and bewilderment

The seconds seemed so long

They're firing bullets at us

It was not supposed to be like this

Awesome to behold

And then our minds locked shut

And then our minds locked shut

And then our minds locked shut

And then our minds locked shut

And there remains...

Jackie Duddy and Willie Nash

Gerry Donaghy, Willy McKinney

Gerard McKinney and Jim Wray

Johnny Johnston, Barney McGuigan

Paddy Doherty, Kevin McIlhenny

John Young, Mickey Kelly

Hugh Gilmore, Micheal McDaid

Let us remember...

It happened on a Sunday afternoon

On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon

On a perfect day for walking
