   I
   I was born and bred in Bridgetown.
   In the County Donegal.
   And when I said good bye to it,
   My heart it seemed to fall.

   II
   As I stood upon the platform,
   Waiting on the train,
   Thinking to myself,
   That I might never come back again.

   III
   I said good bye to all my friends,
   As the tears bedimmed my eyes.
   When I thought of my old friend’s at home,
   My heart it gave a sigh.

   IV
   As the train zipped on through Ulster,
   My thoughts were still at home.
   Thinking of many others,
   Who further still did roam.

   V
   That night the boat rocked to and fro,
   As the hours passed slowly by.
   When I thought of my old friend’s at home,
   It almost made me cry.
