jimmy crowley – when first i came unto this country lyrics
[verse 1]
when first i came unto this country
it was to view the sweet flowers g+y
i then fell courting a pretty female
she appeared to me like the queen mab
[verse 2]
i asked her kindly would she marry
or would she choose to be a sailors bride
oh no kind sir, i’d rather tary
and i would choose a sweet single life
[verse 3]
oh fairest creature, the pride of nature
how come you differ from all female kind?
for you are youthful, both fair and handsome
to marry you, i am most inclined
[verse 4]
no kind sir, since i must tell you
i am promisеd these five yеars or more
to will o’reilly from the county leitrim
which often greet my poor heart from sorr’
[verse 5]
i wish i had you in fina tampa
a hundred miles from your bed home
or in some valley where none may find you
it’s there with you i’d be content to roam
[verse 6]
for its there i would caress my jewel
if along with me she’d consent to go
i’d sail you over to pennsylvania
and bid adieu to o’reilly forevermore
