[00:00.85]Carrickfergus (feat. Ryan Kelly)-Mythology
[00:16.25]I wish I was in Carrickfergus
[00:21.45]
[00:25.05]Only for nights in Ballygran
[00:29.64]
[00:32.89]I would swim over the deepest ocean
[00:38.89]
[00:41.52]The deepest ocean for my love to find
[00:46.89]
[00:49.20]But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
[00:55.21]
[00:57.90]And nor have I the wings to fly
[01:03.01]
[01:06.20]If I could find me a lonesome boatman
[01:12.38]
[01:14.15]To ferry me over my love and I
[01:19.99]
[01:22.61]My childhood days bring back sad reflections
[01:27.98]
[01:30.86]Of happy time I spent so long ago
[01:36.10]
[01:39.04]My boyhood friends and my own relations
[01:44.60]
[01:47.29]Have all passed on now like the melted snow
[01:52.60]
[01:55.10]So I’ll spend my days in endless roving
[02:01.16]
[02:03.93]Soft is the grass my bed is free
[02:09.55]
[02:12.68]Ah, to be home now in Carrickfergus
[02:17.04]
[02:20.71]On that long road down to the sea
[02:26.05]
[02:37.41]And in Kilkenny it is reported
[02:43.20]
[02:46.51]On marble stone there as black as ink
[02:52.02]
[02:55.02]With gold and silver I would support her
[03:01.77]
[03:03.90]But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink
[03:09.57]
[03:12.07]For I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober
[03:18.38]
[03:21.19]A handsome rover from town to town
[03:27.07]
[03:30.32]Ah but I am sick now my days are numbered
[03:36.77]
[03:39.21]Come all ye young men and lay me down
