Fine girl you are! Fare thee well my lovely Dinah, a thousand times adieu We're going away from the holy ground and the girls that we love true We will sail the salt seas over and then return for shore To see again the girls we love and the holy ground once more Fine girl you are! You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once more Fine girl you are! When we're out a sailin' and you are far behind Fine letters will I write to you with the secrets of my mind The secrets of my mind my love you're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy groud once more Fine girl you are! You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once more Fine girl you are! Now the storm is raging and we are far from shore The poor old ship is tossing about and the rigging is all tore Well the night is dark and dreary and the rain chills to our core And we pray to God that we will see the holy ground once more Fine girl you are! You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once more Fine girl you are! Now the storm is over and we are safe and well We'll go into a public house and sit and drink like hell (LIKE HELL) 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! You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once more You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hopes to see the holy ground once more Fine girl you are!
