[00:00.201]The Hills Of Donegal -Boys Of The Lough
[00:08.724]When I was young and in my prime
[00:13.764]My mind being free from care
[00:18.972]Whilst leaving all in Donegal to wander far away
[00:28.837]Whilst leaving all in Donegal to wander far away
[00:38.598]That I might plough the raging main going to Amerikay
[00:48.611]In Creeslough town my friends stood round
[00:53.339]And I bad adieu to all
[00:58.292]In Creeslough town my friends stood round
[01:03.163]And I bad adieu to all
[01:08.27]And down Lough Foyle and away
[01:12.03]I went from the hills of Donegal
[01:18.28]The night being dark and stormy
[01:22.509]And loud the waves did roar
[01:27.404]Our captain cries
[01:29.717]Hold off me boys
[01:32.68]Our vessel's going ashore
[01:36.789]Our captain cries
[01:39.173]Hold off me boys
[01:41.565]To deck you one and all
[01:46.205]And I rued the day I sailed
[01:50.61]Away from the hills of Donegal
[02:33.361]My father he's a farmer
[02:37.873]I mean to tell you all
[02:42.673]Between Moville near Derry
[02:46.472]And the hills of Donegal
[02:52.01]I being like many's the foolish young lad
[02:56.352]I thought I'd sail away
[03:00.912]That I might plough the raging main
[03:05.496]Going to Amerikay
[03:10.64]Here's farewell unto Castlerock
[03:14.792]Likewise unto Downhill
[03:19.504]And to that spot where we sailed by
[03:24.48]They call it sweet Moville
[03:28.816]From sweet Culmore to that foreign shore
[03:33.440]Where waves do rise and fall
[03:38.161]Adieu adieu to my wee lass on the hills of Donegal
