dominic behan - fine girl you are lyrics

[verse 1]
adieu to you my darling
ten thousand times adieu
the ship is sailing swiftly
which will bear me far from you
to leave my lovely dinah
you’re the girl i do adore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more

[chorus]
fine girl you are
you are the girl i do adore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more

[verse 2]
and now we’re salt+sea sailing
and you are far behind
my letters i will write to you
with the secrets of my mindh
with the secrets of my mind
you’re the girl i do adore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more
[verse 3]
i can see a storm arising
i can see it coming soon
the night is dark and dreary
i can scarcely see the moon
and our poor old ship
she is tossing about
and the rigging is all tore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more

[chorus]
fine girl you are
you are the girl i do adore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more

[verse 4]
and now we’re safe at anchor
for we are on the shore
we’ll drink a health to the holy ground
and the girls we do adore
we’ll drink strong ale and porter
and we’ll make the tap room roar
and when our money is all spent
we’ll go to sea for more
[chorus]
fine girl you are
you are the girl i do adore
but still i live in hopes to see
the holy ground once more
