Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore

And fare thee well to Ireland

The land of my native home

Breaks my heart for to see friends part

It's then the teardrops fall

On my way to America

Will I ever see home once more?

I'm leaving behind the one I love

Paddy's green shamrock shore

The ship she lies in anchor

Standing by the quay

My fortune bright shine down each night

As we sail out over the sea

Many ships have been lost, many lives it cost

On the journey that lies before

With a tear in my eye I'm bidding goodbye

To Paddy's green shamrock shore

So fare thee well, my own true love

I think of you night and day

And first in my mind will you surely will find

Although I'm far away

No abbey alone, far away from home

I think of the good tyimes once more

Until the day i can make y way

To paddy's green shamrock shore

And now my ship is on my ay

May heaven protect us all

With the wind in our sails we surely can't fail

On the voyage to Baltimore

My parents and friends, they wave till the end

Till I could see 'em no more

And I took a chance, took one last glance

Paddy's green shamrock shore

And I took a chance, took one last glance

At Paddy's green shamrock shore
