lirik lagu goodbye johnny dear – ion
ust twenty years ago today, i grasped my mother’s hand,
she kissed and blessed her only son, going to a foreign land;
the neighbours took me from her breast and told her i must go,
but i could hear my mother’s voice, though her words were sweet and low.
goodbye, johnny dear, when you’re far away,
don’t forget your dear old mother far across the sea;
write a letter now and then and send her all you can,
and don’t forget where e’er you roam that you’re an irishman.
i sailed away from queenstown, that is the cove of cork,
a very pleasant voyage we had and soon we’re in new york;
i’d plenty of friends to meet me there and work i got next day,
but with all the hospitality i could hear my mother say.
goodbye, johnny dear, when you’re far away,
don’t forget your dear old mother far across the sea;
write a letter now and then and send her all you can,
and don’t forget where e’er you roam that you’re an irishman.
one day a letter came to me, it came from ireland,
the postmark showed it came from home, it was not my mother’s hand;
’twas father who had wrote to say that she had p-ssed away,
and just as if from heaven above i could hear my mother say.
goodbye, johnny dear, when you’re far away,
don’t forget your dear old mother far across the sea;
write a letter now and then and send her all you can,
and don’t forget where e’er you roam that you’re an irishman.
