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 swim over.

Neither have i wings to fly

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 till i get a drink.

 

 

I'm drunk today but i'm seldom sober.

A handsome rover from town to town.

Ah 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.
