Carrickfergus Lyrics - Bryan Ferry & Roxy Music - Bryan Ferry & Roxy Music

(traditional). 

 

I wish I was in carrickfergus 

Only for nights in ballygrand 

I would swim over the deepest ocean 

Just to see my love before I die 

But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over 

Nor have I wings so I could fly 

I wish I could meet a handsome boatman 

To carry me over my love and I 

In kilkenny it is reported 

On marble stones as black as ink 

With gold and silver I did support her 

But i'll sing no more till i've had a drink 

Well i'm drunk today and i'm seldom sober 

A handsome rover from town to town 

But I am sick now my days are numbered 

Come all you young men and lay me down 

Come all you young men and lay me down
