I wish I was in Carboniferous

Only for nights in bally grant

I would swim over the deepest ocean

The deepest ocean for my love to find

But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over

And neither have I the wings to fly

I wish I had a handsome boatman

To ferry me over my love and i

My childhood days bring back sad reflections

Of happy times we spent so long ago

My boyhood friends and my own relations

Have all passed on now like melting snow

So I'll spend my days in ceaseless roving

Soft is the grass my bed is free

Oh to be home now in Carboniferous

On that long winding road down to the sea

Now in Kenny it is reported

On marble stones there as black as ink

With gold and silver I did support her

But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink

And I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober

A handsome rover from town to town

Ah but I'm sick now my days are numbered

Come all ye young men and lay me down

Come all ye young men and lay me down
