lirik lagu moody penner & swain - the green fields of amerikay
the ship she is sailing from fair
to take us and bring us far over the main
with fortune to guide us and heaven to guard us
’till we reach the green fields of amerikay
so come to the land where we can be happy
and don’t be afraid of the storm and the sea
for when we get over we’ll surely discover
that this is the homeland of sweet liberty
the sheep are unsh~rn and the land gone to rushes
the handyman is gone and the winder of creels
while ‘way ‘cross the ocean go journeymen ploughboys
and fiddlers who flaked out the old mountain reels
but i mind the time when old ireland was flourishing
and most of her tradesmen could work for good pay
but since our manufacturies have crossed the atlantic
so we must go and follow to amerikay
there’s a gin in new brunswick at a shilling a bottle
an ale in toronto at a penny a glass
a wine in that fair town they call montreal, boys
and the devil be with us if we don’t take a glass
so fill up your glasses g~y lads and g~y lasses
there’s gold for the winning and lots of it too
good luck to the heart that has courage to wander
and misfortune to those that would chide us adieu
and now to conclude and to finish my story
if ever a friendless irishman chances my way
with the best in the house i will greet him and welcome
at home on the green fields of amerikay
