Iwished I was in Carrickfergus

Only for nights in Ballygrand
lwould swim over
the deepest ocean
The deepest ocean,

for my love to find
Only for nights in Ballygrand

Iwould swim over
the deepest ocean
The deepest ocean,

for my love to find
Iwould swim over

the deepest ocean

The deepest ocean,

for my love to find
The deepest ocean,

for my love to find
and I can not swim over
And nor have I the wings to fly
I wish I could find

a handsome boatman

To ferry me overto my love and die
And nor have I the wings to fly
I wish I could find

a handsome boatman

To ferry me overto my love and die
To ferry me overto my love and die
bring back sad reflections
0f happy times spent long ago
My boyhood friends
and my own relations have all

passed on now like the melting snow
0f happy times spent long ago
My boyhood friends
and my own relations have all

passed on now like the melting snow
My boyhood friends

and my own relations have all

passed on now like the melting snow
and my own relations have all

passed on now like the melting snow
But PII spend my days
in endless roving
Soft is the grass my bed is free
Oh to be back now

in Carrickfergus

On that long road down to the sea
Soft is the grass my bed is free
Oh to be back now

in Carrickfergus

On that long road down to the sea
in Carrickfergus

On that long road down to the sea
On that long road down to the sea
INSTRUMENTAL
And in Kilkenny it is reported
There are marble stones there
as black as ink, With gold
and silver I would support her
But I'll sing no more

now 'til I get a drink
as black as ink, With gold

and silver I would support her

But I'll sing no more

now 'til I get a drink
and silver I would support her

But I'll sing no more

now 'til I get a drink
But I'll sing no more

now 'til I get a drink
A handsome rover
from town to town

Ah but I am sick now

and my days are numbered
Ah but I am sick now

and my days are numbered
So come all
ye young men
and lay me down
So come all

ye young men

and lay me.. down .....
