[00:01.45]I wished I was in Carrickfergus,
[00:10.83]Only for nights in Ballygrand,
[00:19.61]I would swim over the deepest ocean,
[00:28.94]The deepest ocean to be by your side.
[00:36.82]
[00:37.99]But the sea is wide and I can't swim over
[00:48.87]And neither have I the wings to fly.
[00:58.92]If I could find me a handy boatman
[01:09.19]To ferry me over to my love and die.
[01:17.06]
[01:19.12]My childhood days bring back sad reflections
[01:29.87]Of happy time spend so long ago.
[01:39.82]My boyhood friends and my own relations.
[01:50.63]Have all passed on like the melting snow.
[01:59.35]
[02:00.55]I'll spend my days in endless roving,
[02:10.67]Soft is the grass and my bed is free.
[02:21.09]Oh to be home now in Carrickfergus,
[02:31.47]On the long road down to the salty sea.
[02:40.14]
[02:41.76]And in Kilkenny it is reported
[02:52.41]On marble stone as black as ink,
[03:02.31]With gold and silver I did support her
[03:12.95]But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink.
[03:21.51]
[03:22.95]For I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober,
[03:33.66]A handsome rover from town to town.
[03:44.11]Oh but I am sick now and my days are numbered
[03:54.41]so come on ye young men and lay me down."
