tinsmith - robinson county/thousands are sailing lyrics
good luck to those people
and safe may they land
they’re leaving their country
for a far distant strand
they’re leaving old ireland
no longer to stay
thousands are sailin’
for amerikay
you brave irish heroes
where’er you be
i pray stand a moment
listen to me
your sons and fair daughters
they are goin’ away
and thousands are sailin’
for amerikay
good luck to those people
and safe may they land
they’re leaving their country
for a far distant strand
they’re leavin’ old ireland
no longer to stay
thousands are sailin’
for amerikay
the night before leavin’
they’re bidding goodbye
and it’s early next mornin’
their hearts give a sigh
they do kiss their mothers
and then they do say
“farewell, dear old father
we must now go away”
[instrumental interlude]
pity the mother
who rears up the child
and likewise the father
who labours and toils
to try to protect them
he will work night and day
and when they are reared up
they will go away
good luck to those people
and safe may they land
they’re leaving their country
for a far distant strand
they’re leavin’ old ireland
no longer to stay
thousands are sailin’
for amerikay
