    I will part from you all and all around the Borders of Lovely Blackhall.
    I (know) know you will feel lonely
    When those words I will say
    Farewell, and a safe passage to america

    Our good ship she lies on the old river Boyne
    And her bells they are ringing
    Its now up to time
    Its was quickly I boarded her
    And her stages were drew
    Farewell Dear Old Drogheda
    I must bid you adieu

    All was lonely and still
    As we passed by the road
    Leading by Green Hills
    We next came to Beaulieu
    That place of renown.
    Just a short distance of Sweet Morning
