When The Boys Come Rolling Home

Вступление

[Verse 1]

I always will remember well the day we went away

Sailing out of Dublin in the morning

Our hopes were on tomorrow as we kissed the girls farewell

And our dreams were on the day of our returning

[Chorus 1]

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

[Verse 2]

We safely reached the other side in New York City fair;

In spite of wind and rain and stormy weather

We all sat down and drank a glass, and wished each other well

And we said that we'd be going back together

[Chorus 2]

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

[Verse 3]

Now Del went up to Boston, and Sam to Buffalo

And Joe went down as far as Californie;

I used to get some letters then, but that was long ago;

And they always spoke of Ireland and returning

[Chorus 3]

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

[Instrumental 1]

[Verse 4]

Well, I'm well over eighty now, my grandson's by my bed;

And here I'm in Chicago and still scheming;

He says he'll take me back again to rest my weary head;

And I'll leave him a legacy of dreaming

[Chorus 4]

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

N.C.

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

N.C.

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

There'll be dancin', romancin', and never more we'll roam

There'll be rollin' in the hay, there'll be whiskey in the tay when the boys come rolling home

[Instrumental 1]
