One Starry Night Lyrics - Bankers & Gangsters - Black 47

One starry night as I lay sleepin' 

One starry night as I lay in bed 

Dreamed I heard wagon wheels a'creakin' 

When I awoke, love, found you had fled 

I'll search the highways likewise the byways 

I'll search the boreens, the camping places too 

I will inquire of all our people 

Have they tide or tidings or sight of you 

For it's many's the mile, love, with you I've traveled 

Many's the hour, love, with you I've spent 

Dreamed you were my love forever 

But now I find, love, you were only lent 

I'm drunk today, I'm seldom sober 

A handsome rover from town to town 

When I am dead, my story ended 

Molly Bn a stoirn, come lay me down
