《Carrickfergus》歌词

[00:00:00] I wished I had you in Carrickfergus

[00:00:12] Only for nights in Ballygrand

[00:00:21] I would swim over the deepest ocean

[00:00:34] The deepest ocean to be by your side

[00:00:45] But the sea is wide and I can't swim over

[00:00:58] And neither have I wings to fly

[00:01:11] I wish I could find me a handy boatman

[00:01:23] To ferry me over to my love and die

[00:01:36] My childhood days bring back sad reflections

[00:01:50] Of happy time so long ago

[00:02:01] My boyhood friends and my own relations

[00:02:15] Have all passed on like the melting snow

[00:02:27] So I'll spend my days in endless roving

[00:02:40] Soft is the grass and my bed is free

[00:02:52] Oh to be home now in Carrickfergus

[00:03:06] On the long road down to the salty sea

[00:03:20] And in Kilkenny it is reported

[00:03:34] On marble stone there as black as ink

[00:03:46] With gold and silver I did support her

[00:03:59] But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink

[00:04:12] I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober

[00:04:25] A handsome rover from town to town

[00:04:38] Oh but I am sick now

[00:04:45] And my days are numbered

[00:04:52] Come all ye young men and lay me down
