Lyrics:

From Derry quay we sailed away

On the twenty-third of May

We were taken on board by a pleasant crew

Bound for Amerikay

Fresh water then we did take on

Five thousand gallons or more

In case we'd run short going to New York

Far away from the shamrock shore

Then fare thee well, sweet Liza dear

And likewise unto Derry town

And twice farewell to my comrades brave

That dwell on that sainted ground

If fame or fortune shall favour me

And I to have money in store

I'll go back and I'll wed the wee lassie I left

On Paddy's green shamrock shore

We sailed three days, we were all seasick

Not a man on board was free

We were all confined unto our bunks

And no-one to pity poor me

No father kind nor mother dear

To lift up my head, it was sore

Which made me think more on the lassie I left

On Paddy's green shamrock shore

We safely reached the other side

After fifteen and twenty days

We were taken as passengers by a man

And led round in six different ways

Then each of us drank a parting glass

In case we'd meet no more

And we drank a health to old Ireland

And Paddy's green shamrock shore

Then fare thee well, sweet Liza dear

And likewise unto Derry town

And twice farewell to my comrades brave

That dwell on that sainted ground

If fame or fortune shall favour me

And I to have money in store

I'll go back and I'll wed the wee lassie I left

On Paddy's green shamrock shore
