Dolores Keane - Johnny And Molly lyrics

Your rating:

Johnny and Molly they sat reposing, under a bank of blooming roses
While on the quay the ships were waiting, this young couple sat repeating
Love farewell, darling farewell, and it's all for parting love farewell

"Johnny dear, now do not leave me, for your absence it would grieve me
For if you go where the cannons rattle, I greatly fear you might fall in battle"
Love farewell, darling farewell, and it's all for parting love farewell

"Molly dear, now do not mourn, for there's a relief at my returning
When I come back from the war's alarm, I'll gently roll you in my arms"
Love farewell, darling farewell, and it's all for parting love farewell

The 'oul woman says "Now do not wrong me, do not take my daughter from me
For if you do I will torment you, at my death my ghost will haunt you!"
Love farewell, darling farewell, and it's all for parting love farewell

The ship now she sails on the stormy ocean, seeking out on high promotion
While the trumpets sound and the drums are beating, march me boys, for there's no retreating
Love farewell, darling farewell, and it's all for parting love farewell
