    And every sea port town,
    From that lofty brae of the Loughinlea,
    And all its banks around.
    The morning I left Ireland,
    I do remember well,
    The boys and girls from far and near,
    Came bidding me fare well,
    They sang and danced till morning,
    And by the break of day,
    It was with a sigh I bade good bye,
    To dear old Loughinlea.
