  1. (continued from previous page)
    You wont forget your lover dear
    when you are far away.
    But if ever you do return again
    and me to see the day
    Ill embrace you in my arms
    On the Greens at Pollan Bay
    7th verse
    Now to conclude and make an end
    I have no more to say.
    I do intend to cross the seas bound for America
    For Mary she has sent for me
    and with her I will stay.
    And bid farewell to all my friends
    around Sweet Pollan Bay.
