Holy Ground

Fare thee well my lovely Dinah a thousand times adieu

For we^’re going away from the Holy Ground

And the girls we all love true

We will sail the south seas and we’ll return for shore

And when our money is all spent we will go to sea once more.

Fine Girl You Are

And now the storm is raging, and we are far from land

And the good ole ship is tossing about, and the rigging is all torn

And the secret on my life my love, is yor the girl I do adore.

And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more.

Fine Girl You Are

And now the storm is over and we are safe and well

We will go into a Public house and we’ll sit and drink our fill.

We will drink strong ale and porter and we’ll make the rafters roar.

And when our money is all spent we’ll go to sea once more.

Fine Girl You Are  

Yor the girl I do adore and still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more.

Fine Girl You Are
