Lyrics Home Boys Home (Live) - The Dubliners
Oh
well,
who
wouldn′t
be
a
sailor
lad
a
'Sailin′
on
the
main
To
gain
the
goodwill
of
his
captain's
good
name
He
came
ashore
one
evening
for
to
be
And
that
was
the
beginning
of
my
own
true
love
and
me
And
it's
home,
boys
home
Home
I′d
like
to
be,
home
for
a
while
in
my
own
coun-try
Where
the
oak
and
the
ash
and
the
bonny
rowan
tree
Are
all
a-growing
green
in
the
old
country
Well
I
asked
her
for
a
candle
for
to
light
me
up
to
bed
And
likewise
for
a
handkerchief
to
tie
around
me
head
She
tended
to
me
needs
like
a
young
maid
ought
to
do
So
then
I
says
to
her:
′Now
won't
you
leap
in
with
me
too?′
And
it's
home,
boys
home
Home
I′d
like
to
be,
home
for
a
while
in
my
own
coun-try
Where
the
oak
and
the
ash
and
the
bonny
rowan
tree
Are
all
a-growing
green
in
the
old
country
Well
she
jumped
into
bed,
making
no
alarm
Thinking
a
young
sailor
lad
could
do
to
her
no
harm
Well
I
hugged
her
and
I
kissed
her
the
whole
nightlong
Till
she
wished
the
short
night
had
been
seven
years
long
And
its
home,
boys
home
Home
I'd
like
to
be,
home
for
a
while
in
my
own
coun-try
Where
the
oak
and
the
ash
and
the
bonny
rowan
tree
Are
all
a-growing
green
in
the
old
country
Well
early
next
morning
the
sailor
lad
arose
And
into
Mary′s
apron
threw
a
handful
of
gold
Saying,
'Take
this
me
dear
for
the
mischief
that
I've
done
For
tonight
I
fear
I′ve
left
you
with
a
daughter
or
a
son′
And
it's
home,
boys
home
Home
I′d
like
to
be,
home
for
a
while
in
my
own
coun-try
Where
the
oak
and
the
ash
and
the
bonny
rowan
tree
Are
all
a-growing
green
in
the
old
country
'Well,
if
it
be
a
girl
child,
send
her
out
to
nurse
With
gold
in
her
pocket
and
with
silver
in
her
purse
And
if
it
be
a
boy
child
he′ll
wear
the
jacket
blue
And
go
climbing
up
the
rigging
like
his
daddy
used
to
do'
Maidens,
a
warning
take
by
me
And
never
let
a
sailor
lad
an
inch
above
your
knee
For
I
trusted
one
and
he
beguiled
me
He
left
me
with
a
pair
of
twins
to
dangle
on
me
knee
And
it′s
home,
boys
home
Home
I'd
like
to
be,
home
for
a
while
in
my
own
coun-try
Where
the
oak
and
the
ash
and
the
bonny
rowan
tree
Are
all
a-growing
green
in
the
old
country
