Ambletown Home Dearie Home Lyrics

AMBLETOWN (HOME DEARIE HOME)

O Amble is a fine town with ships about the bay

It's fain and very fain to be there myself today

I'm wishing in my heart I was far away from here

Sitting in my parlor and talking with my dear

And it's home, dearie, home, it's home I want to be

My topsails are hoisted and I am out to sea

The oak and the ash and the bonnie birchen tree

Are all a-growing green in the North country

And it's home, dearie, home

A letter came today, but somehow I cannot speak

And the proud and happy tears are a-rolling down my checks

There's someone here, she says, you've been waiting for to see

With your merry hazel eyes, looking up from off my kneeTrickett Ed - Ambletown Home Dearie Home - http://motolyrics.com/trickett-ed/ambletown-home-dearie-home-lyrics.html

But the letter never said if we have a boy or girl

Got me so confused that my heart is all a whirl

So I'm going back to port, where I'll quickly turn around

And take the fastest ship, which to Ambletown is bound

Well, if it be a girl, she shall wear a golden ring

If it be a boy, he shall live to serve the King

With his buckles and his boot and his little jacket blue

He'll walk the quarterdeck, like his daddy used to do
