《Home Boys Home》歌词

[00:00:01] Oh well who wouldn`t be a sailor lad a sailin` on the main

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

[00:00:09] He came ashore one evening for to be

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

[00:00:16] And it`s home boys home

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

[00:00:22] In me own country

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:42] So then I says to her ""Now won`t you leap in with me too ""

[00:00:45] It`s home boys home

[00:00:48] Home Boys Home - The Dubliners

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

[00:00:52] In me own country

[00:00:54] Where the oak and the ash and the bonny rowan tree

[00:00:58] Are all a-growin` green in the old country

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

[00:01:05] Thinking a young sailor lad could do to her no harm

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

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

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

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

[00:01:22] In me own country

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

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

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

[00:01:34] And into Mary`s apron threw a handful of gold

[00:01:37] Saying ""Take this me dear for the mischief that I`ve done

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

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

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

[00:01:51] In me own country

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

[00:01:57] Are all a-growin` green in the old country

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

[00:02:04] With gold in her pocket and with silver in her purse

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

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

[00:02:14] And it`s home boys home

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

[00:02:21] In me own country

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

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

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

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

[00:02:37] For I trusted one and he beguiled me

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

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

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

[00:02:50] In me own country

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

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