The Holy Ground Songtext
von The Killigans

Adieu to you, my Dinah
A thousand times adieu
We′re going away from the Holy Ground
And the girls that we love true
We will sail the salt sea over
And then return for sure
To see again the girls we love
And the Holy Ground once more

Adieu to you, my Dinah
A thousand times adieu
We're going away from the Holy Ground
And the girls that we love true
We will sail the salt sea over
And then return for sure
To see again the girls we love
And the Holy Ground once more


You′re the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to see
The Holy Ground once more
My girl you are

I see the storm clouds rising
I see it coming soon
And the sky it is so cloudy
You can scarcely see the moon
And the good old ship she was tossing about
And the winds they was all torn
And still I live in hopes to see
The Holy Ground once more

You're the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to see
The Holy Ground once more
My girl you are


And now the storm is over
And we are safe on shore
We will drink and toast to the Holy Ground
And the girls that we adore
Yeah, we will drink strong ale and porter
And make the rafters roar
And when our money is all spent
We'll go to sea once more

You′re the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to see
The Holy Ground once more
My girl you are
You′re the girl I do adore
And still I live in hopes to see
The Holy Ground once more
My girl you are
