That was great. I'd never read it, and I have to confess I have not listened closely to the lyrics. I will from now on. What a love story....a story of rebellion and daring and pain. I just listened to a few cuts of hers. I think Carrighfergus is right near the top of my favorites. The melody is haunting. Trad. arr. by Loreena McKennitt and Cedric Smith for Canadian feature film BAYO I wish I was in Carrighfergus, Only for nights in Ballygrant. I would swim over the deepest ocean, Only for nights in Ballygrant. But the sea is wide, and I can't swim over. Neither have I wings to fly. If I could find me a handsome boatsman To ferry me over to my love and die. Now in Kilkenny, it is reported, They've marble stones there as black as ink. With gold and silver I would transport her But I'll sing no more now, till I get a drink. I'm drunk today, but I'm seldom sober. A handsome rover from town to town. Ah, but I am sick now, my days are over, Come all you young lads and lay me down. I wish I was in Carrighfergus, Only for nights in Ballygrant. stlyrics.com

that was a great story lyrics mean everything a master of both is van morrison Half a mile from the county fair And the rain keep pourin’ down Me and billy standin’ there With a silver half a crown Hands are full of a fishin’ rod And the tackle on our backs We just stood there gettin’ wet With our backs against the fence Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Hope it don’t rain all day And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like jelly roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin’ home And it stoned me Then the rain let up and the sun came up And we were gettin’ dry Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by So we jumped right in and the driver grinned And he dropped us up the road We looked at the swim and we jumped right in Not to mention fishing poles Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Let it run all over me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like jelly roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin’ home And it stoned me On the way back home we sang a song But our throats were getting dry Then we saw the man from across the road With the sunshine in his eyes Well he lived all alone in his own little home With a great big gallon jar There were bottles too, one for me and you And he said hey! there you are Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Get it myself from the mountain stream And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like jelly roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin’ home And it stoned me
