Carrickfergus (1999 Digital Remaster)
I wish i was in carrickfergus
Only for nights
In ballygrand
I would swim over
The deepest ocean
Just to see my love
Before i die
But the sea is wide
And i cannot swim over
Nor have i wings
So i could fly
I wish i could meet
A handsome boatman
To carry me over
My love and i
In kilkenny
It is reported
On marble stones
As black as ink
With gold and silver
I did support her
But i′ll sing no more
Till i′ve had a drink
Well i′m drunk today
And i′m seldom sober
A handsome rover
From town to town
But i am sick now
My days are numbered
Come all you young men and lay me down
Come all you young men and lay me down
