The Wolfe Tones — Toor A Lay

Oh, the harvest, it is home And it's now that I must roam To try and seek me fortune In a far and distant land (Chorus) The ship, it's on the quay They're waiting there for me Farewell, my love Until we meet again I will love you in the morning Just as the day was dawning I love you while the skies Are blue or gray In the spring when trees are budding When autumn leaves are falling Or when the evening comes around I love you, toor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay I love you true my love Sure as the star shines up above That guides a ship That takes me to a far and distant land (Chorus) The ship is on the quay They're waiting there for me Farewell, my love Until we meet again I will love you in the morning Just as the day was dawning I love you while the skies Are blue or gray In the spring when trees are budding When autumn leaves are falling Or when the evening comes around I love you, toor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay So farewell, my love, goodbye Now, do not weep or cry I'll send you back the fare From this far and distant land (Chorus) The ship is on the quay They're waiting there for me Farewell, my love Until we meet again I will love you in the morning Just as the day was dawning I love you while the skies Are blue or gray In the spring when trees are budding When autumn leaves are falling Or when the evening comes around I love you, toor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay Toor a loo, toor a lay Toor a loor a lay
