Farewell To Nova Scotia - The Real McKenzies.mp3
[00:23.85]the sun was set...
[00:23.85]the sun was setting in the West
[00:26.82]the birds were singing in every tree
[00:30.00]all nature seemed inclined for to rest
[00:32.52]but still there was no rest for me.
[00:36.60]i grieve to leave my native land
[00:39.72]and i grieve to leave my comrades all
[00:41.73]and my parents whom i hold so dear
[00:44.49]and the bonnie, bonnie lass that i do adore.
[00:47.91]farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
[00:50.49]let your mountains dark and dreary be
[00:53.70]for when i am far away on the briny ocean tossed
[00:56.46]will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?
[01:12.06]the drums they do beat and the wars to alarm
[01:14.55]the captain cries, and we must obey
[01:17.40]so farewell, farewell to Nova Scotia's charms
[01:20.22]for it's early in the mornin' and i'm far, far away
[01:23.34]farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
[01:26.25]let your mountains dark and dreary be
[01:29.25]for when i am far away on the briny ocean tossed
[01:32.19]will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?
[01:36.54]i have three brothers and they are at rest
[01:38.46]their arms are crossed upon their breast
[01:41.49]but a poor simple sailor jest like me
[01:43.98]must be tossed and driven in the cold black sea
[01:47.19]farewell to Nova Scotia, you sea-bound coast
[01:50.10]let your mountains dark and dreary be
[01:53.10]for when i am far away on the briny ocean tossed
[01:56.07]will you ever heave a sigh and a wish for me?
