the barleycorn - my last farewell lyrics
[verse 1]
dearest mother i am writing just to say i won’t be home
there’s something that i have to do and i must do alone
they have took me and they’ve put me in this lonely prison cell
tonight my thoughts are with you as i say my last farewell
[chorus]
so say goodbye to margaret, mary bridget and michál
i have no words to tell you how much i’ll miss you all
and though i may not show it you know i’ve loved you well
so in my final letter i will bid my last farewell
[verse 2]
dearest brother won’t you take good care of all the folks for me
go home to rathfarnam on the day they set you free
i was happy when you stood by me in all that we’ve been through
no one has ever had so true a brother such as you
[chorus]
so say goodbye to margaret, mary bridget and michál
i have no words to tell you how much i’ll miss you all
and though i may not show it you know i’ve loved you well
so in my final letter i will bid my last farewell
[verse 3]
dearest mother it’s so very sad that now we have to part
to understand the reasons would trouble your poor heart
i have told you since i was a boy it was my destiny
to die a true brave soldier so that one day you’d be free
[chorus]
so say goodbye to margaret, mary bridget and michál
i have no words to tell you how much i’ll miss you all
and though i may not show it you know i’ve loved you well
so in my final letter i will bid my last farewell
