Debra Cowan - Bay of Biscay-O (trad) Lyrics

Font:

Align:

My Willie sailed on board a tender

And where he is I do not know

Seven long years I've been constantly waiting

Since he crossed the Bay of Biscay-O

One night as Mary lay a-sleeping

A knock came to her bedroom door

Saying “Arise arise my dearest Mary

For to earn one glance of your Willie-O”

Mary arose put on her clothing

And to her bedroom door did go

And there she saw her Willie standing

His two pale cheeks as white as snow

O Willie dear where are those blushes

Those blushes I knew long years ago

O Mary dear the cold waves lash them

I am the ghost of your Willie-O

But Mary dear the dawn is breaking

I fear it’s time for me to go

I must leave you cold and broken hearted

For to cross the Bay of Biscay-O

If I had gold and I had money

And all the silver in Mexico

I would grant it all to the King of Erin

For to bring me back my Willie-O
