Home Boys Home - The Dubliners[00:00:00]

Written by：Luke[00:00:00]

Oh well who wouldn't be a sailor lad a sailin on the main[00:00:00]

To gain the good will of his captain's good name[00:00:05]

He came ashore one evening for to be[00:00:08]

And that was the beginning of my own true love and me[00:00:12]

And it's home boys home[00:00:15]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:00:19]

In me own country[00:00:23]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:00:24]

Are all a-growin' green in the old country[00:00:28]

Well I asked for a candle for to light me up to bed[00:00:31]

And likewise for a handkerchief to tie around me head[00:00:35]

She tended to me needs like a young maid ought to do[00:00:38]

So then I says to her now won't you leap in with me too[00:00:41]

And it s home boys home[00:00:45]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:00:49]

In me own country[00:00:52]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:00:53]

Are all a-growin' green in the old country[00:00:57]

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

Thinking a young sailor lad could do to her no harm[00:01:04]

Well I hugged her and I kissed her the whole night long[00:01:08]

Till she wished the short night had been seven years long[00:01:11]

And it's home boys home[00:01:15]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:01:18]

In me own country[00:01:22]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:01:23]

Are all a-growin' green in the old country[00:01:27]

Well early next morning the sailor lad arose[00:01:30]

And into mary's apron threw a handful of gold[00:01:34]

Saying take this me dear for the mischief that I've done[00:01:37]

For tonight I fear I've left you with a daughter or a son[00:01:41]

And it's home boys home[00:01:44]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:01:48]

In me own country[00:01:51]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:01:53]

Are all a-growin green in the old country[00:01:56]

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

With gold in her pocket and with silver in her purse[00:02:03]

And if it be a boy child he'll wear the jacket blue[00:02:07]

And go climbing up the rigging like his daddy used to do[00:02:10]

And it s home boys home[00:02:13]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:02:17]

In me me own country[00:02:21]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:02:22]

Are all a-growin' green in the old country[00:02:26]

Oh come all of you fair maidens a warning take by me[00:02:29]

I never let a sailor lad an inch above your knee[00:02:33]

For I trusted one and he beguiled me[00:02:36]

He left me with a pair of twins to dangle on me knee[00:02:40]

And it's home boys home[00:02:43]

Home I'd like to be home for a while[00:02:47]

In me own country[00:02:50]

Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree[00:02:52]

Are all a-growin' green in the old country[00:02:56]
