Paroles : Farewell to Carlingford

When I was young and in my prime
And could wander wild and free
There was always a longing in my mind
To follow the call of the sea

So I'll sing farewell to Carling ford
And farewell to Gree nore
And I'll think of you both day and night
Untill I return once more
Untill I return once more

On all the stormy seven seas
I have sailed before the mast
And every voyage I ever made
I swore it would be my last

So I'll sing farewell to Carling ford
And farewell to Gree nore
And I'll think of you both day and night
Untill I return once more
Untill I return once more
Now I had a girl called Mary Doyle
She lives in Greenore
And the foremost thought in my mind
Is to keep me safe onshore

So I'll sing farewell to Carling ford
And farewell to Gree nore
And I'll think of you both day and night
Untill I return once more
Untill I return once more

A landman's life is all his own
He can go or he can stay
But when the sea gets in your blood
The call you must obey

So I'll sing farewell to Carling ford
And farewell to Gree nore
And I'll think of you both day and night
Untill I return once more
Untill I return once more
So I'll sing farewell to Carling ford
And farewell to Gree nore
And I'll think of you both day and night
Untill I return once more
Untill I return once more
