Luke Kelly & The Dubliners The Holy Ground
Fare thee well, my lovely Dinah, a thousand times
adieu.
We’re goin’ away from the Holy Ground and the girls we
all love true.
We will sail the salt seas over and we'll return for
shore,
To see again the girls we love and the Holy Ground once
more.
Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore,
And still I live in hopes to see the Holy Ground once
more.
Fine girl you are!
And now the storm is raging and we are far from shore;
And the good old ship is tossin’ about and the rigging
is all tore.
And the secrets of my mind, my love, you're the girl I
do adore,
And still I live in hopes to see the Holy Ground once
more.
Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore,
And still I live in hopes to see the Holy Ground once
more.
Fine girl you are!
And now the storm is over and we are safe and well
We will go into a public house and we’ll sit and drink
like hell!
We will drink strong ale and porter and we'll make the
rafters roar,
And when our money is all spent, we'll go to sea once
more.
Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore,
And still I live in hopes to see the Holy Ground once
more.
Fine girl you are!
