Carrickfergus
| Traditional |

| I wish I was in Carrickfergus Only for nights in Ballygrand I would swim over the deepest ocean Only for nights in Ballygrand But the sea is wide and I can not swim over And neither have I the wings to fly I wish I had a handsome boatman To ferry me over, my love and I Now 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 now till 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, my days are numbered Come all you young men and lay me down This page has been viewed 3823 times |
