Bangor Town

Set my sails And betrothed, the wind will guide me To draw upon the North East shore Of the emerald island County Down Where Bangor town Is now and forever calling And recalls me by the shore At peace in silence I sit down by the water And I glory at my host Let the rivers roll over like lovers Oh, brothers and sisters and I Good Lord, you know we need it most Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild In Bangor town County Down Let joys abound Back in Fealty's bar on High Street Where we'll raise a glass to all a fair tomorrow We'll be found Amidst the sound Of laughter ever roaring As we drink our fill where once We drowned our sorrows I sit down by the water And I glory at my host Let the rivers roll over like lovers Oh, brothers and sisters and I Good Lord, you know we need it most Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild In Bangor town County Down And where Jerry wails Writing signs outside the Helmsman Beware you passers-by what lays inside there Oh, he testified And Julie cried, reminiscing on her story Surrounded once by glory not by violence I sit down by the water And I glory at my host Let the rivers roll over like lovers Oh, brothers and sisters and I Good Lord, you know we need it most Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild In Bangor town County Down
