Many Young Men of Twenty |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
All that long day |
From break of dawn until the sun was high |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
My boy Jimmy went that day |
On the big ship, sailed away |
Sailed away and left me here to die |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
I met my love upon the mountain Rim |
The day he left |
I knew I bore a living child of him |
I knew I bore a living child of him |
And the child was born to me |
Jimmy is gone across the sea |
Jimmy is gone and here, alone am I |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
My Jimmy said he’d sailed across the sea |
He swore his oaths |
He’d sail back home one day and marry me |
He’d sail back home one day and marry me |
But my Jimmy let me down |
Now they mock me in the town |
Oh, my Jimmy, please come back to me |
Oh, my Jimmy, please come back to me |
Many young man of twenty said goodbye |
All that long day |
From break of dawn until the sun was high |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
They left the mountains and the glens |
The lasses and the fine young men |
I saw the tears of every girl and boy |
Many young men of twenty said goodbye |
