Paddy Goes To Holyhead - Set The Sail

Set the sail:

Sailing on deep water on a foggy summers day
leaving all behind me don’t know where I’ll make my way
Lying in the shadow underneat hthe foremast-tree
Playing shanties on my bluesharp singing songs for you and me

We were loaded down with barley were were loaded down with rye
Well the parrot he looked down at me a twinkle in his eye
And teh skipper he come up on deck a spyglass in his hand
Surrounded by the open sea he couln’t spy the land

Play your harb so wild and free
Would you sit around the bunk and listen onto me
You feel high and you feel low
Would you play the harp again and let the music go

Set the sail where-ever I go
Set the sail where-ever I come from
Set the sail whenever I know where-ever I will go

Well I know my song has lasted and my words are long enough
The tune is interesting but the rhymes are mighty rough
Well you wake up in the morning late at night you fell to ground
Do not think about tomorrow let it go and come around
