<pre><font size='+2'>BACK HOME IN DERRY lyrics PADDY SCHMIDT</font><br>In 1803 we sailed out to sea  <br />
 Out from the sweet town of Derry <br />
 For Australia bound  <br />
 if we didn`t all drown <br />
 The marks of out fetters we carried <br />
 On our rusty iron chains we cried for out weans <br />
 Our good women we left in sorrow <br />
 As the main sails unfurled, wild curses we hurled <br />
 On the English and thought of tomorrow <br />
  <br />
 At the mouth of the Foyle, bid farewell to the soil <br />
 As down below deck we were lying <br />
 O`Doherty screamed woken out of a dream <br />
 By a vision of Bold Robert dying <br />
 The sun burned us cruel as we dished out the gruel <br />
 Dan O`Connor was down with a fever <br />
 Sixty rebels today bound for Botany Bay <br />
 How many will reach their receiver? <br />
  <br />
 I cursed them to hell as our bough fought the swell <br />
 Our ship danced like a moth in the firelight <br />
 White horses rode high as the devil passed by <br />
 Taking souls to Hades by twilight <br />
 Five weeks out to sea, we were now 43 <br />
 We buried our comrades each morning <br />
 In our own slime we were lost in a time <br />
 Endless night without dawning <br />
  <br />
 Van Diemen`s Land is the hell for a man <br />
 To spend out his whole life in slavery <br />
 Where the climate is raw and the gun makes the law <br />
 Neither wind nor rain care for bravery <br />
 Twenty years have gone by and I`ve ended my bond <br />
 My comrades ghosts walk behind me <br />
 A rebel I came and I`m still the same <br />
 On the cold winds of night you will find me <br />
  <br />
 Oh, I wish I was back home in Derry<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/back_home_in_derry_lyrics-paddy_schmidt.html" target='_blank'>BACK HOME IN DERRY lyrics PADDY SCHMIDT</a></pre>

In 1803 we sailed out to sea
Out from the sweet town of Derry
For Australia bound
if we didn`t all drown
The marks of out fetters we carried
On our rusty iron chains we cried for out weans
Our good women we left in sorrow
As the main sails unfurled, wild curses we hurled
On the English and thought of tomorrow

At the mouth of the Foyle, bid farewell to the soil
As down below deck we were lying
O`Doherty screamed woken out of a dream
By a vision of Bold Robert dying
The sun burned us cruel as we dished out the gruel
Dan O`Connor was down with a fever
Sixty rebels today bound for Botany Bay
How many will reach their receiver?

I cursed them to hell as our bough fought the swell
Our ship danced like a moth in the firelight
White horses rode high as the devil passed by
Taking souls to Hades by twilight
Five weeks out to sea, we were now 43
We buried our comrades each morning
In our own slime we were lost in a time
Endless night without dawning

Van Diemen`s Land is the hell for a man
To spend out his whole life in slavery
Where the climate is raw and the gun makes the law
Neither wind nor rain care for bravery
Twenty years have gone by and I`ve ended my bond
My comrades ghosts walk behind me
A rebel I came and I`m still the same
On the cold winds of night you will find me

Oh, I wish I was back home in Derry
