The Holy Ground

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!!

Your`re the girl that I adore 
and still I live in hopes to see 
The Holy Ground once more.       FINE GIRL YOU ARE!

I 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

Your`re the girl that I 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 once more.        FINE GIRL YOU ARE !

Your`re the girl that I adore 
and still I live in hopes to see 
The Holy Ground once more.  FINE GIRL YOU ARE!
