Paul Mills - Fogarty's Cove lyrics

[Fiddle Intro] [Verse 1] We just lost sight of the Queensport light Down the bay before us And the wind has blown some cold today With just a wee touch of snow Along the shore from Lazy Head Hard abeam Half Island Tonight we'll let the anchor go Down in Fogarty's Cove [Verse 2] My Sally's like the ravens wing Her hair is like her mother's With hands that make quick work of a chore And eyes like the top of a stove Come suppertime she'll walk the beach Wrapped in my old duffle With her eyes upon the masthead reach Down in Fogarty's Cove [Chorus x2] She will walk the sandy shore so plain Watch the comber's roll in 'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again Down in Fogarty's Cove [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] She cries when I'm away to sea Nags me when I'm with her She'd rather I'd a government job Or maybe go on the dole But I love the waves as I pull about Nose into the channel My Sally keeps the supper and a bed for me Down in Fogarty's Cove [Chorus x2] She will walk the sandy shore so plain Watch the comber's roll in 'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again Down in Fogarty's Cove [Fiddle Outro]
