The Dubliners - The Holy Ground lyrics

Fine girl you are!
Adieu to you my Dinah, a thousand times adieu
We're going away from the Holy Ground and
The girls we all love true
We will sail the salt seas over
And then return for sure
To see again the girls we love
And the Holy Ground once more

Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to
See the Holy Ground once more
Fine girl you are!

See the storm a-rising I see it coming soon
And the sky it is so cloudy
You can scarcely see the moon
And the good old ship, she was tossing about
The riggin' was all tore
And still I live with hopes to
See the Holy Ground once more

Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to
See the Holy Ground once more
Fine girl you are!

And now the storm it is over
And we are safe on shore
We will drink a toast to the Holy
Ground and the girls that we adore
We will drink strong ale and porter
And make the rafters roar
And when our money is all spent
We'll go to sea for more

Fine girl you are!
You're the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to
See the Holy Ground once more
Fine girl you are!
