It's a Long Way Home to Donegal |
I’ll follow their father wherever you go, |
I know that I’ll snow, we can bestow together, |
With a drink in our chest we’ll be strong, we’ll be strong |
While I love you dear mother, now, don’t you frown, |
I’ll be back some day without the grey skies, |
We’ll have supper, together again, we’ll have supper, once again |
Refrão |
It’s a long way home |
It’s a long way home to Donegal |
So farewell my beauty, my sweet young girl, |
I’ll see you again, I’ll marry you as well, |
we’ll make love, have sweet children, and make love, once again |
Then December the 12th, a letter it came, |
It re-sung your young love, was laid by a fever last night, |
Oh no, I never saw, Oh, again |
Refrão (2x) |
Oh say so my brother, wherever we roam, |
I love you like the places we go, |
and our friends smoke cigarettes, and they’re friends, best of friends |
Oh there’s no Irish blood, in our English years, |
we fight with our fists and swallow our fears, |
and be strong, with a drink in our chest we’ll be strong, we’ll be strong |
Refrão (2x) |
