Thin Lizzy - Philomena lyrics

I've been a wild wild rover Sailed all over the sea But this thing that makes me wonder Has made a fool of me For it took me from my childhood Underneath the stars and skies And i still hear the wind Whistling through the wild wood, whispering goodbye It's home boys home She's home boys home No matter Where i roam If you see my mother Please give her all of my love For she has a heart of gold there As good as god above If you see my mother Tell her i'm keeping fine Tell her that i love her And i'll try and write sometime
