Let Us Drink and Go Hame

歌詞

Well, the day I first landed, it was on Irish ground The music came to me from fair Derry town But my love was married and to my sad woe I lost my first love by courting too slow Let us drink and go hame, drink and go hame If we stay any longer, we'll get a bad name No matter my troubles, misfortune and woe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go When I walked in the highlands, it was my youth To wear a blue bonnet for plague and the truth But now since I've come to the fair Irish shore Adieu to violent Derry and bonny Portmore Let us drink and go hame, drink and go hame If we stay any longer, we'll get a bad name No matter my troubles, misfortune and woe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here My heart's in the Highlands, or chasing the deer I'm chasing the wild deer and following the doe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go Let us drink and go hame, drink and go hame If we stay any longer, we'll get a bad name No matter my troubles, misfortune and woe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go There's many a word spoken, but you are the best And he that feeds favour, lies longer at rest I speak from experience, my heart tells me so But my heart's in the Highlands wherever I go Let us drink and go hame, drink and go hame If we stay any longer, we'll get a bad name No matter my troubles, misfortune and woe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go The day I first landed, it was on Irish ground The music came to me from fair Derry town But my love was married and to my sad woe I lost my first love by courting too slow Let us drink and go hame, drink and go hame If we stay any longer, we'll get a bad name No matter my troubles, misfortune and woe My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go
