Seamus Kennedy - When the Boys Come Rolling Home lyrics

Artist: Seamus Kennedy

album: Let The Music Take You Home


When the Boys Come Rolling Home
The Dubliners
I always will remember well the day we went away
Sailing out of Dublin in the morning
Our hopes were on tomorrow as we kissed the girls farewell
And our dreams were on the day of our returning
There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam
There'll be rollin' in the hay,
There'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home
We safely reached the other side in New York City fair;
In spite of wind and rain and stormy weather
We all sat down and drank a glass, and wished each other well
And we said that we'd be going back together
Now Del went up to Boston, and Sam to Buffalo
And Joe went down as far as Californie;
I used to get some letters then, but that was long ago;
And they always spoke of Ireland and returning
(Chorus followed by instrummental)
Well, I'm well over eighty now, my grandson's by my bed;
And here I'm in Chicago and still scheming;
He says he'll take me back again to rest my weary head;
And I'll leave him a legacy of dreaming
(Chorus Twice)
