Lowlands Lyrics - Joan Baez

We sailed out of Dunmore Michelmas gone by 

Cowhides and wool and live cargo 

Twenty young Wild Geese ready fledged to fly 

Sailing for the lowlands low 

The lowlands low, the lowlands low 

Sailing for the lowlands low 

Sean Rouse the skipper from the church of Crook 

Piery keeps log for his father 

Crew all from Bannow, Fethard and the Hook 

Sailing for the lowlands low 

The lowlands low, the lowlands low 

Sailing for the lowlands low

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Ready with priming we'd our galliot gun 

Muskets and pikes in good order 

We should be riddled captives would be none 

Death or else the lowlands low 

The lowlands low, the lowlands low 

Death or else the lowlands low 

A pirate approached us many leagues from shore 

We fought and we sunk him in good order 

He'll go a-roving plundering no more 

Sailing for the lowlands low 

The lowlands low, the lowlands low 

Sailing for the lowlands low 

We smuggled out the Wild Geese weapons safe ashore 

Then we unloaded our cargo 

A fair wind is blowing we're headed for Dunmore 

Sailing from the lowlands low

The lowlands low, the lowlands low 

Sailing from the lowlands low 

The lowlands low, the lowlands low
