letra de the good ship lagan - the lagan
well upon the tens
we looked the lagan
shaped her hull
and first set sail
and from old london
aims her prow
to sing a song
and tell her tale
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
hanging in the morning
she sailed us true
across the ocean
boston port to derry key
’til the storm that
left her reeling
sails all torn from
weeks at sea
minutes p-ssed
from hours to day
he floating free
horizons bare
no wisp of wind
the gall jumps at us
roasting in this
stifling air
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
roasting in the morning
on the eighteenth day
the ships bell ringing
fast reply rang from aloft
“it’s land i tell ya!”
“so it is!”
we’re not yet found
we’re not yet lost
and so the lagan
steered to land
though it was no mans land but you
two more days
they took the finest
water for her thirsty crew
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
thirsting in the morning
each morn’ we’d lick
the dew from gr-ss
and pray to gods unknown for rain
with the clouds on the horizon
shrinking ’til the torrents came
we stayed a while
on that fair isle
thoughts of home
outweighed the rest
so stores were filled
we set to work
made good the lagan
‘fore she left
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
sailing in the morning
for five long months
we toiled and labored
more than those
we lost at sea
we prayed to god and to the devil
freedom from their
purgatory
but the storm clouds (hey!)
were fast approaching, (hey!)
we were still (hey!)
two days from sh-r- (hey!)
we knew that she (hey!)
had seen her terrible (hey!)
lagan crew that sees no more (hey!)
that cold dark night
the pirates came
and grappled to
our starboard bow
but outnumbered
we fought them off
the lagan boys victorious!
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
victors in the morning
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
drinking ’til the morning
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
hanging in the morning
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
ooh-rye up the lagan
party ’til the morning (hey!)
