the wolfe tones - blow ye winds lyrics

oh, my love, she is beautiful and my love she is young
her hair is blue as a violet’s hue and silvery is her tongue
silvery is her tongue, me boys and while i sing this lie
she’s doin’ a brand in a far off land ten thousand miles away
[chorus]
sing, blow ye winds, hi+ho, whalin’ i will go
i’ll stay no more ’round ireland’s shores so let the music play
i’ll be off in the mornin’s rain to cross the ragin’ main
i’m on the move to my true love, ten thousand miles away

sad and bitter was the day i parted with me peg
she’d a government brand upon each hand and another one ’round her leg
another one down her leg, me boys, as the good ship sailed away
“adieu,” says she, “remember me ten thousand miles away”

if i could be a boatswain bold or even a bombardier
i’d pile aboard and hurry afloat and to my true love steer
and to my true love, steer, me boys, where the dancing dolphins play
and the whales and the sharks, they’re having their larks ten thousand miles away

[chorus]
sing, blow ye winds, hi+ho, whalin’ i will go
i’ll stay no more ’round ireland’s shores so let the music play
i’ll be off in the mornin’s rain to cross the ragin’ main
i’m on the move to my true love, ten thousand miles away
the sun may shine to the liffey for the liffey’ll run quite clear
on a peeler man when one thing found or i forget me beer
or i forget me beer, me boys, on the landlord’s quarter day
but i can’t forget me own true love ten thousand miles away
