‘Derry girl by my side’
Do you know the words of this unique Derry song?
Derry News reader, Philip James, has been in touch with a request for the words of a unique song from the city.
Philip said the song was called ‘Derry Girl by my side’.
He added: “I only heard it once and all I know is that it was from the Lecky Road and Bishop Street area, in the 1950s.
“Only a few families knew this song. I’m sure there would only be a few left now who would know it. It was a very nice song and I would love to have the words because if this song is gone, well it’s gone.”
