The Holy Ground lyrics

Fine girl you are!

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 South sea over

And then return for sure

To see again the girls we love

And the holy ground once more

Fine girl you are!

The girl I do adore

And still I live in hopes to see

The holy ground once more,

Fine girl you are!

See the storm a-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,

The riggin' was all tore

And still I live with hopes to see

The holy ground once more

Fine girl you are!

You're the girl I do adore

And still I live in hopes to see

The holy ground once more,

Fine girl you are!

And now the storm it is over

And we are safe on shore

We will drink a toast to the holy ground

And the girls that we adore

We will drink strong ale and porter

And make the rafters roar

And when our money is all spent

We'll go to sea for more

Fine girl you are!

The girl I do adore

And still I live in hopes to see

The holy ground once more,

Fine girl you are!
