The Killigans - The Holy Ground Lyrics
Adieu to you my 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 sure,To see again the girls we love, and the holy ground once moreYou’re the girl I do adore!And still I live in hopes to seeThe holy ground once moreI see the storm clouds rising, I see it coming soon,And the sky it is so cloudy you can scarcely see the noon,The poor old ship is tossing about and the rigging is all tornAnd still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once moreAnd now the storm is over and we are safe on shoreWe will drink and toast to the Holy Ground and the girls that we adoreWe 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 more
