[00:00.00]The Hills Of Donegal - Boys Of The Lough
[00:08.72]When I was young and in my prime
[00:13.76]My mind being free from care
[00:18.97]Whilst leaving all in Donegal to wander far away
[00:28.83]Whilst leaving all in Donegal to wander far away
[00:38.59]That I might plough the raging main going to Amerikay
[00:48.61]In Creeslough town my friends stood round
[00:53.33]And I bad adieu to all
[00:58.29]In Creeslough town my friends stood round
[01:03.16]And I bad adieu to all
[01:08.02]And down Lough Foyle and away
[01:12.00]I went from the hills of Donegal
[01:18.02]The night being dark and stormy
[01:22.50]And loud the waves did roar
[01:27.40]Our captain cries
[01:29.71]Hold off me boys
[01:32.06]Our vessel's going ashore
[01:36.78]Our captain cries
[01:39.17]Hold off me boys
[01:41.56]To deck you one and all
[01:46.20]And I rued the day I sailed
[01:50.06]Away from the hills of Donegal
[02:33.36]My father he's a farmer
[02:37.87]I mean to tell you all
[02:42.67]Between Moville near Derry
[02:46.47]And the hills of Donegal
[02:52.00]I being like many's the foolish young lad
[02:56.35]I thought I'd sail away
[03:00.91]That I might plough the raging main
[03:05.49]Going to Amerikay
[03:10.06]Here's farewell unto Castlerock
[03:14.79]Likewise unto Downhill
[03:19.50]And to that spot where we sailed by
[03:24.04]They call it sweet Moville
[03:28.81]From sweet Culmore to that foreign shore
[03:33.44]Where waves do rise and fall
[03:38.16]Adieu adieu to my wee lass on the hills of Donegal
