              I know that but it does not contain many Ws

              I wished I had you in Carrickfergus
              Only for nights in Ballygrand
              I would swim over the deepest ocean
              The deepest ocean to be by your side

              But the sea is wide and I can't swim over
              And neither have I wings to fly
              I wish I could find me a handy boatman
              To ferry me over to my love and die

              My childhood days bring back sad reflections
              To happy times spend so long ago
              My boyhood friends and my own relations
              Have all passed on like the melting snow

              But I'll spend my days in endless roving
              Soft is the grass and my bed is free
              Oh, to be home now in Carrickfergus
              On the long road down to the salty sea

              And in Kilkenny it is reported
              On marble stone there as black as ink
              'With gold and silver I did support her
              But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink'

              I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober
              A handsome rover from town to town
              Oh, but I am sick now and my days are numbered
              So come ye young men and lay me down"


              even if it was sung by Wan Morrison and dare I mention Kathwerine Jenkins! - who was Welsh

                            sorry, I thought we were being guided towards Richard Rodgers

                            Don Williams ?
