Carrickfergus歌词完整版

I wish I was in Carrickfergus

Only for nights in Ballygrand

I would swim over the deepest ocean

Over the ocean, for my love to find

But the sea is wide and I can’t swim over

Nor have I the wings to fly

If I could find me a handsome boatman

To ferry me over

My love and I

My childhood days bring back sad reflections

Of happy times I spent so long ago

My boyhood friends and my own relations

Have all past on now like melting snow

But I 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

Now in Kilkenny it is reported

On marble stone 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

‘Cause I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober

A handsome rover from town to town

Ah but I'm sick now and my days are numbered

Come all ye young maids, and lay me down

Come all ye young maids, and lay me down
