Lyrics:
When I was young and in my prime And could wander wild and free There was always a longing in my mind To follow the call of the sea [Chorus] So, I'll sing farewell to Carlingford And farewell to Greenore And I'll think of you both day and night Until I return once more Until I return once more On all of the stormy seven seas I have sailed before the mast And on every voyage I ever made I swore it would be my last [Chorus] Now, I had a girl called Mary Doyle And she lived in Greenore And the foremost thought was in her mind Was to keep me safe on shore [Chorus] Now, the landsman's life is all his own He can go or he can stay But when the sea gets in your blood When she calls, you must obey [Chorus]
