Loreena McKennitt - Elemental

Carrighfergus

I wish I was in Carrighfergus
Only for nights in Ballygrant
I would swim over the deepest ocean
Only for nights in Ballygrant

But the sea is wide, and I can't get over
And neither have I wings to fly
Or if I could find me a handsome boatsman
To ferry me over to my love and die

Now in Kilkenny, it is reported
They've marble stones there, as black as ink
With gold and silver, I would transport her
But I'll sing no more now, 'til I get a drink

I'm drunk today, but then I'm seldom sober
A handsome rover from town to town
Oh-oh, but I am sick now, my days are over
Come all you young lads, and lay me down

I wish I was in Carrighfergus
Only for nights in Ballygran
