[00:08.68]
[00:10.68] I wish I was in Carrighfergus,
[00:19.79] Only for nights in Bellygrant.
[00:28.10] I would swim over the deepest oceans,
[00:37.43] Only for nights in Bellygrant.
[00:44.43]
[00:45.63] But the sea is wide, and I can't get over.
[00:55.18] Neither have I wings to fly.
[01:04.14] Oh, if I could find a handsome boatsman
[01:13.29] To ferry me over to my love and die.
[01:21.87]
[01:40.27] Now in Kilkenny, it is reported,
[01:48.93] They've marble stones there as black as ink.
[01:57.89] With gold and silver I would transport her
[02:06.76] But I'll sing no more now, till I get a drink.
[02:13.84]
[02:15.71] I'm drunk today, but then I'm seldom sober.
[02:25.22] A handsome rover from town to town.
[02:34.19] Oh, but I am sick now, my days are over,
[02:43.69] Come all you young lads and lay me down.
[02:50.91]
[02:57.61] I wish I was in Carrighfergus,
[03:07.11] Only for nights in Bellygrant.
[03:18.47]
[03:22.82]
[03:24.88] END
