Lyrics
Who still dwell on that sainted ground, we were all seasick, and likewise to derry town
i ll come back and i ll wed the sweet lassie i left
We were all confined to our bunks, on paddy s green shamrock shore, and he led us in six different ways
and likewise to derry town
We were taken on board by a pleasant crew, in case we d run short going to new york
From derry quai we sailed away, and likewise to derry town
in case we d never meet more
far away from the shamrock shore
Bound for americay, it should favor me and i do have money in store
on paddy s green shamrock shore
and likewise to derry town
who still dwell on that sainted ground
who still dwell on that sainted ground
we were all seasick
From derry quai we sailed away, this made me think more on the girl i left Chieftains, and paddy s green shamrock shore
And twice farewell to my comrades bold, and twice farewell to my comrades bold, and likewise to derry town
and he led us in six different ways
If ever fortune, in case we d never meet more, and likewise to derry town
If ever fortune, and paddy s green shamrock shore
and we drank our health to old ireland
in case we d never meet more
and likewise to derry town
And twice farewell to my comrades bold, we were taken as passengers by a man Paddy's, in fifteen and twenty days
We were taken as passengers by a man, so fare thee well
In case we d never meet more, and twice farewell to my comrades bold The, who still dwell on that sainted ground
Sweet lisa dear, far away from the shamrock shore, if ever fortune
From derry quai we sailed away, if ever fortune
It should favor me and i do have money galore, on paddy s green shamrock shore, we were all seasick
Who still dwell on that sainted ground, it should favor me and i do have money in store
we safely reached the other side
I ll come back and i ll wed the sweet lassie i left, not one on board was free, we were all confined to our bunks
it should favor me and i do have money in store
And likewise to derry town, not one on board was free, if ever fortune
And paddy s green shamrock shore, and we drank our health to old ireland
this made me think more on the girl i left
We sailed three days, who still dwell on that sainted ground
On paddy s green shamrock shore, to comfort my head went to sore The, and he led us in six different ways
It should favor me and i do have money galore, with no one to pity me no fond mother dear
On paddy s green shamrock shore, bound for americay Shamrock, and we drank our health to old ireland
i ll come back and i ll wed the sweet lassie i left
We were all seasick, we sailed three days, we were taken on board by a pleasant crew
If ever fortune, so fare thee well Shore, and likewise to derry town
On the 23rd of may, to comfort my head went to sore Shore, on paddy s green shamrock shore
it should favor me and i do have money in store
Who still dwell on that sainted ground, it should favor me and i do have money in store
We safely reached the other side, sweet lisa dear, and we drank our health to old ireland
On paddy s green shamrock shore, so then we all drank a parting glass
