Home Boys Home - Luke Kelly[00:00:00]

Written by：Luke Kelly/Ronald Joseph Drew/Ciaran Padraig Maire Bourke/Barney Mckenna[00:00:04]

Well who wouldn't be a sailor lad sailing on the main[00:00:09]

To gain the good will of his captain's good name[00:00:14]

He came ashore one evening for to see[00:00:17]

And that was the beginning of my old true love and me[00:00:21]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:00:25]

Home for a while in me own country[00:00:31]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:00:34]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:00:38]

Well I asked her for a candle for to light me way to bed[00:00:41]

And like wise for a handkerchief to tie around me head[00:00:45]

She tended to me needs like a young maid ought to do[00:00:49]

And then I said to her now would you lip in with me too[00:00:52]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:00:56]

Home for a while in me own country[00:01:02]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:01:05]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:01:09]

Well she jumped into bed making no alarm[00:01:13]

Thinking a young sailor lad could do to her no harm[00:01:16]

Well I hugged her and I kissed her the whole night long[00:01:20]

Till she wished the short night had been seven years long[00:01:23]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:01:27]

Home for a while in me own country[00:01:33]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:01:36]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:01:40]

Well early next morning the sailor lad arose[00:01:44]

And into Mary's apron threw a handful of gold[00:01:47]

Saying take this me dear for the demage that I've done[00:01:51]

For tonight I fear I've left you with a daughter or a son[00:01:54]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:01:58]

Home for a while in me own country[00:02:04]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:02:07]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:02:11]

And if it be a girl child send her out to nurse[00:02:14]

With gold in her pocket and silver in her purse[00:02:18]

And if it be a boy child he'll ware the jacket blue[00:02:21]

And go climbing up the rigging like his daddy used to do[00:02:25]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:02:28]

Home for a while in me own country[00:02:34]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:02:37]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:02:41]

Oh come all of you fair maidens a warning take by me[00:02:44]

Never let a sailor lad an inch above your knee[00:02:48]

For I trusted one and he beguiled me[00:02:52]

He left me with a pair of twins to dangle on me knee[00:02:55]

And it's home boys home home I'd like to be[00:02:59]

Home for a while in me own country[00:03:04]

Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan tree[00:03:08]

Are all growing greener in the old country[00:03:11]
