Angelo Kelly & Family - Coming Home

Carrickfergus

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
Neither have I the wings to fly

I wish I had a handsome boatsman
To ferry me over, my love and I
And then Kilkenny it is reported
All marble stones this black is any ink
With gold and silver I would support her
But I'll sing no more now 'til I get a drink
I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober
A handsome rover from town to town
Oh but I'm sick now my days are number
So come here young men and lay me down

But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
Neither have I the wings to fly

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Only for nights in Ballygrand
