Home Boys Home
|
When I was just a young man sure I longed to see the world,
To sail across the seas in ships and see the sails unfurl,
I went to seek me fortune on the far side of the hill,
I`ve wandered far and wide and now of travel I`ve had me fill.
CHORUS
And It`s Home Boys Home,
Home I`d Like to be,
Home for a while in the old country.
Where the Oak and the Ash and the bonny Rowan Tree,
Will all be growin` greener in the old country.
Well I left my love behind me and I sailed across the tide,
I told her I`d be back again and take her for my bride
But many years have passed and gone and still I`m far away,
I know she is a fond true love and waiting for the day
CHORUS
Now I`ve learned there`s more to life than to wander and to roam,
Happiness and peace of mind can best be found at Home,
For money can`t buy happiness and money cannot bind,
So I`m going back tomorrow to the girl I left behind.
CHORUS
