Many young man of twenty said goodbye All that long day From break of dawn until the sun was high Many young man of twenty said goodbye
My boy Jimmy went that day On the big ship sailed away Sailed away and left me here to die Many young man of twenty said goodbye
I met my love upon the mountain Rim The day he left I new I bore a living child of him I new I bore a living child of him
And the child was born to me Jimmy's gone across the sea Jimmy's gone and here alone am I Many young man of twenty said goodbye
My Jimmy said he'd sailed across the sea He swore his oaths He'd sail back home one day and marry me He'd sail back home one day and marry me
But my Jimmy let me down Now they mock me in the town Oh my Jimmy please come back to me Oh my Jimmy please come back to me
Many young man of twenty said goodbye All that long day From break of dawn until the sun was high Many young man of twenty said goodbye
They left the mountains and the glens The lasses and the fine young men I saw the tears of every girl and boy Many young man of twenty said goodbyeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
