But the sea is wide and I can't swim over And neither have I wings to fly. I wish I could find me a handy boatman To ferry me over to my love and die. My childhood days bring back sad reflections Of happy days so long ago. My boyhood friends and my own relations. Have all passed on like the melting snow. So I'll spend my days in endless roving, Soft is the grass and my bed is free. Oh to be home now in Carrickfergus, On the long road down to the salty sea. And in Kilkenny it is reported On marble stone there as black as ink, With gold and silver I did support her But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink. I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober, A handsome rover from town to town. Oh but I am sick now and my days are numbered Come all ye young men and lay me down Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Choppin Wood, City Home, Cleaning Windows, Col De Sac, Col Wind In August, Cold Wind in August, Come Here My Love, Come Running, Comfort You, Coney Island, Contacting My Angel, Contemplation Rose, Could Wind In August, Could You, Would You, Country Fair, Crazy Arms, Crazy Face, Crazy Jane On God, Crazy Love, Cry for Home, Cul de Sac, Cyprus Avenue, Daring Night, Days Like This, Dead Or Alive, Did Ye Get Healed?, Do It, Domino, Dont Worry A Thing, Dont Change On Me, Dont Look Back, Dont Start Crying Now, Dont Worry About A Thing, Dont Worry About Tomorrow, Dont You Know, Dont You Rock Me Daddio, Dont Change On Me, Dont Look Back, Dont Start Crying Now, Dont Worry About A Thing, Dont Worry About Tomorrow, Dont You Know, Dont You Rock Me Daddio, Down The Road, Down To Earth, Drivin Wheel, Drivin Wheel, Drumshanbo Hustle, Drumshanbo Hustle (another version), Dum Dum George, Other Van Morrison song Lyrics (Get Your Kicks On) Route 66 Lyrics (It Wont Hurt) Half As Much Lyrics (It Wont Hurt) Half As Much Lyrics (Straight to Your Heart) Like a Cannonball Lyrics 4 Pantomime Lyrics A New Kind Of Man Lyrics A Sense Of Wonder Lyrics A Town Called Paradise Lyrics Across The Bridge Where Angels Dwell Lyrics Aint Nothin You Can Do Lyrics Alabamy Bound Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Van Ronk Dave Lyrics Van Veen Herman Lyrics Herman Van Veen Lyrics Vanda Vanda Lyrics Vandals Lyrics Vandals, The Lyrics Vandavanda Lyrics Vanden Plas Lyrics Vandenberg Lyrics Vandeross Luther 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
