lirik lagu carrickfergus – dubliners
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 cannot swim over
and neither have i the wings to fly
i wish i had a handsome boatsman
to ferry me over my love and i
(this verse is only sung on the ”40 years ”cd)
my childhood days bring back sad reflections
of happy times there spent so long ago
my boyhood friends and my own relations
have all past on now with the melting snow
so i’ll spend my days in this endless roving
soft is the gr-ss and sh-r-, my bed is free
oh to be home now in carrickfergus
on the long rode down to the salty sea
now in kilkenny it is reported
on marble stone there as black as ink
with gold and silver i would support her
but i’ll sing no more now til 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 number
come all me young men and lay me down
come all me young men and lay me down.
