Been, deep in the heart of Texas
Been in the heart of Down
Been up on Highway One, child
Man, I've been around
I've been there in the beginning
When twelve shillings was a pound
I've been here long enough to know that
What goes around just comes around
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
Is it Kathleen?
Is it Maureen?
Is It Eileen?
Is it Irene Goodnight?
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
I was playing at the Whiskey
When The Doors were opening up
Sometimes I sat there drinking
From a poisoned cup
Somebody told me about a garden
I was headed towards the beach
Back then it seemed the Holy Grail
Was always out of reach
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
Is it Kathleen?
Is it Maureen?
Is It Eileen?
Singing Irene Goodnight
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well you meet the same people on the way up
As you do on the way down
There's always somebody trying
To steal somebody else's crown
When you lose your point of reference
And it goes, nothing more to know
Got to go right back to where those
Healing waters flow
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
Is it Kathleen?
Is it Maureen?
Is It Eileen?
Singing Irene Goodnight
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
Well I may as well be
In the County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down
I'm going down, County Up
I'm going up, County Down

Sir George Ivan Morrison, noto come Van Morrison, è un cantautore, polistrumentista e paroliere nordirlandese nato a Belfast nel 1945. Considerato uno dei più influenti artisti della musica popolare del XX secolo, Morrison ha attraversato diversi generi musicali, dal folk rock al jazz, passando per il blues e la soul. La sua carriera, iniziata negli anni '60 con i Them, lo ha visto raggiungere fama internazionale con album come "Astral Weeks" (1968), considerato un capolavoro del genere psichedelico, e "Moondance" (1970), che lo consacrò come uno dei cantautori più amati al mondo. Morrison è noto per la sua voce potente e distintiva, le sue melodie memorabili e i testi poetici spesso ispirati alla vita quotidiana, all'amore e alla spiritualità. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "Brown Eyed Girl", "Gloria", "Domino" e "Into the Mystic". Ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui un Grammy Award nel 1974 per il suo album "Hard Nose the Highway", e nel 2016 è stato nominato Cavaliere dell'Ordine dell'Impero Britannico.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
