The Irish Rovers - Paddy's Green Shamrock Shores lyrics

So fare thee well sweet Liza dear And likewise to Derry Town And twice farewell to my comrades all Who dwell on that sainted ground If fortune it ever should favour me Or I to have money in store I'll go back and I'll wed The wee la**ie I left On Paddy's green shamrock shore From Derry's Quay we sailed away On the twenty-third of May We were signed on as pa**engers On a ship bound for Amerikay Fresh water there we did take on Ten thousand gallons or more In case we'd run short Running down to New York Far away from the Shamrock shore We landed on the outher side In three and thirty days And drinking over a parting gla** We all went our separate ways We took each comrade by the hand In case we might never meet more And we drank a health The old Ireland And Paddy's green shamrock shore
