Dubliners - The Holy Ground Lyrics
1. Fare thee well my lovely Dinah,A thousand times adieuFor we're going away from the Holy Ground,And the girls we all love trueWe will sail the salt seas over,And then return for shoreTo see again the girls we love,And the holy Ground once moreFINE GIRL YOU AREYou're the girl that I adore,But still I live in hope to seeThe holy Ground once more2. And now the storm is raging,And we are far from shoreAnd the good old ship is tossing about,And the rigging is all toreAnd the secret ofmy life, my love,You're the girl that I adoreBut still I live in hope to see,Holy Ground once moreFINE GIRL YOU AREYou're the girl that I adore,But still I live in hope to seeThe holy Ground once more3. And now the storm is over,And we are safe and wellWe will go down to a public house,And sit and drink like hellWe will drink strong ale and porter,And we'll make the rafters roarAnd when our money is all spent,We will go to sea once moreFINE GIRL YOU AREYou're the girl that I adore,But still I live in hope to seeThe holy Ground once more, FINE GIRL YOU ARE
