the irish rovers - sail away you sailor boys lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
we’re leaving dear ould dublin we’re sailing with the tide
the docks are filled with lassies all forlorn and teary+eyed
the parting’s never easy as we pull away from shore
for devil a home we’ll see again for forty days or more

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea
[verse 2]
we’re headed for the sunny shores of portugal and spain
with turf from tipperary and from antrim flax and grain
but the prize of all the cargo of this there’s little doubt
therе’s crates of irish whiskey and therе’s kegs of guinness stout

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea

[verse 3]
the captain comes from belfast and stern but fair is he
you’d never find a better man across the seven seas
through fair or stormy weather we take it as it comes
for the captain just like us he likes his daily tot of rum

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea
[verse 4]
so here’s to all the sailor boys wherever you may roam
and may you have a worthy ship when plowing through the foam
and may the fates be gentle and smile upon us all
and we’ll drink to our good fortune at the nearest port of call

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea

[chorus]
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailor boys the wind is blowing free
so sail away (sail away) so sail away (sail away)
so sail away you sailors sail away across the sea
