The landlords and their agents, their bailiffs and their beagles The land of our forefathers we're forced for to give o'er And we're sailing on the ocean for honor and promotion And we're parting with our sweethearts, it's them we do adore If you were in your bed lying and thinking of dying One sight of the bonny Bann banks, your sorrows you'd give o'er And if your were but one hour all in her shady bower Pleasure would surround you, You'd think on death no more So fare thee well, sweet Craigie Hill, where ofttimes I have roved in I never thought in my childhood days I'd part you any more But we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion And the bonny boat's sailing way down by Doorin shore @emigration @Irish filename[ CRAIGHIL recorded by Dick Gaughan SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Crow On The Cradle, Crows In The Garden, Crucificixion Of Christ, Cruel Brother, Cruel Mother, Cruel War, Cuba Native Anthem Text, Cuckoo, Cuckoo Shes A Pretty Bird, Cuckoos Nest, Cumberland And The Merrimac, Cumberlands Crew, Cunnla, Cupids Garden, Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight, Curragh Of Kildare, Cushie Butterfield, Cutty Wren, Cutty Wren2, Cyprus Anthem Text, Cyprus Native Anthem Text, Cyril Said It All Before, Czech Republic Native Anthem Text, Czechoslovakia Composers Round, Daddy Whats A Train, Daddy Youve Been On My Mind, Dahn The Plugole, Daily Growing Bonny Boy Is Young, Dalesmans Litany, Dame Durden, Damn Damn Damn The Filipinos, Dan Doo, Dancing At Whitsun, Danger Waters, Danny Boy, Danny Boy Other Version, Danville Girl, Darcy Farrow, Dark As The Dungeon, Dark British Foes, Dark Island, Dark Night Round, Darlin, Darling Corey, Darling Nelly Gray, Darwinian Theory, Das Lied Der Deutschen, Davy Crockett, Davy Faa, Davy Lowston, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
