Go To Sea No More Lyrics


Irish Descendants Go To Sea No More

Its another day we go

sailing o're the blue

i look to the horizon

my thoughts drift home to you

a young man only seventeen

adventure could'nt wait

set sail from home on a fishing ship

bound for the boston state

i shipped out on a glouster smack

and fished the georges bank

the work was hard

and the wages fare

to the good lord i gave thanks

although ive had a good life

as good as any man

if i could change the course of time

id live in my home land

chorus:

My thoughts are always with you

have you changed since ive been gone

oh how i long to see you

the time has been so long

if i could get just one more chance

to walk your rugged shore

id train the life i chose to make

and go to sea no more

last night as i lay dreaming

i sailed the raging foam

my ship she took me far away

to the rocky shores of home

and i could write a thousand lines

to say just how i feel

i hope and pray that some fine day

my dreams they can be real

Chorus: repeat 2 times

id train the life i chose to make

and go to sea no more
