the jolly rogers - donegal danny كلمات أغنية
[verse 1]
i remember the day that he came in
windy, cold and damp
he was a giant of a man in an oilskin coat
and a bundle which told he was a tramp
he stood at the bar and called a pint
and he turned and he gazed into the fire
on a night like this, to be safe and dry
is my one and only desire
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
[verse 2]
then in a voice that was hushed and low
he said “listen, and i’ll tell you a tale”
how a man of the sea became a man of the roads
and never more would set sail
i fished out of howth and k!llybegs
ardglass and baltimore
but the cruel sea has defeated me
and i never sail her no more
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
[verse 3]
that fateful night in the wind and the rain
we set sail from k!llybegs town
there were five of us from sweet donegal
and one from county down
we were fishermen and we loved the sea
and we never counted the cost
but i never thought ‘ere that night was done
that my fine friends would all be lost
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
[verse 4]
then the storm it broke and it drove the boat
on the rocks about ten miles from shore
as we fought the tide, we hoped inside
to see our homes once more
then we struck a rock and hold the bow
and all of us knew that she’d go down
so we jumped right into that icy sea
and prayed to god we wouldn’t drown
but the ragin’ sea was a_risin’ still
as we struck out for the land
and she fought with all her cruelty
to claim that gallant band
by saint john’s point in the early dawn
i dragged myself on the shore
and i cursed the sea for what she’d done to me
and vowed to sail her no more
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
[verse 5]
ever since that day i’ve been on the road
travelin’ and trying to forget
that awful night when i lost my friends
i can see their faces yet
oft’ times at night when the tides are high
or the wind is biting at my skin
i can hear the cries of drowning men
floating over the wind
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
and here’s to those that are dead and gone
to friends that i loved dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
singin’ “donegal danny was here, me boys”
singin’ “donegal danny was here”
