lirik lagu pecker dunne - donegal danny
[verse 1]
i remember the night, that he came in, from the wintry cold and the damp
a giant of a man, in an isleskin coat, and a bundle that told he was a tramp
he stood at the bar, and he called a pint, and he turned and he gazed at the fire
on a night like this to be safe and dry, is my one and only desire
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to the friends that i love dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
sayin’ donegal danny’s been here me boy
donegal danny’s been here
[verse 2]
and in a voice that was hushed and low
he said listen i’ll tell you a tale
how a man of the sea became a man of the road
and never more will set sail
i fished out of howth and k!llybegs, ardglass and baltimore
but the cruel sea has beaten me
and i lend my days on the shore
[verse 3]
i remember that night in the wind and the rain
we set sail from k!llybegs town
there were five of us from sweet donegal, and one from county down
we were fishermen we worked the sea and never counted the cost
but i never thought when that night was down that my fine friends would be lost
[verse 4]
the storm it broke and drove the boat to the rocks about ten miles from shore
as we fought the tide we hoped and sighed to see our homes once more
but we struck a rock and holed the bow and all of us knew she’d go down
so we jumped right into to the icy sea and prayed to god we wouldn’t drown
[verse 5]
but the raging sea was rising still as we headed in for the land
and she tried with all her cruelty to claim that gallant band
by st john’s point in the early dawn i dragged myself up on the shore
and i cursed the sea for what she done
and vowed to sail her never more
[chorus]
so here’s to those who are dead and gone
to the friends that i love dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
sayin’ donegal danny’s been here me boy
donegal danny’s been here
[verse 6]
ever since that night, i’ve been on the road
travelin’ trying to forget
that awful night, i lost all my friends
i see there faces yet
and often at night when the sea is as high
and the rain is tearing at my skin
i hear the cry of drowning men
floating over on the wind
[chorus]
so here’s to those that are dead and gone
to the friends that i love dear
and here’s to you and i’ll bid you adieu
sayin’ donegal danny’s been here me boy
donegal danny’s been here
