Rapalje - Carrickfergus lyrics

Artist: Rapalje

album: Diamonds


I wish I was
In Carrickfergus
Only for nights
In Ballygrant
I would swim over
The deepest ocean
The deepest ocean
For my love to find
But the sea is wide
And I cannot swim over
And neither have I
The wings to fly
I wish I could meet me
A handsome boatsman
To ferry me over,
My love to find
My childhood days
Bring back sad reflections
Of happy times
I spent so long ago
My boyhood friends
And my own relations
Have all passed on now
Like melting snow
But I'll spend my days
In endless roaming
Soft is the grass,
My bed is free
Ah, to be back now
In Carrickfergus
On that long road
Down to the sea
But in Kilkenny
It is reported
On marble stones there
As black as ink
With gold and silver
I would support her
But I'll sing no more
'Till I get a drink
For I'm drunk today,
And I'm seldom sober
A handsome rover
From town to town
Ah, but I'm sick now,
My days are numbered
Come all you young men
And lay me down.
