Mo Choill Lyrics

There's a gentleman in this land
It's recorded on the board
I've sent a letter by post haste
To pledge my love and married bliss

Chorus (after each verse):
You're my love, love, love
You're my loved one so fair
You're my dark sailor boy
And I wish for your care

A ship to the bay
Sets the casks on the rails When the wine's drained away
She'll be ready to sail

In all this wide world
There is one man I care
Whom Aoife dismissed
And put on board the "Man-of-War"

I journeyed away
And my love's bed reneged
When I heard that my love
Was abroad on the waves
