"Ships In Full Sail" lyrics

The bright sun is shinin' and blue skies a-pinin'
For the want of some clouds or some ornamentation
The heather's a-blazin' and cows are a-grazin'
And sit on the hill overlookin' the bay

They're out in the ocean, the ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour, the crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowin' the ships in full sail

Some men sail for pleasure and others for treasure
And some do the wishin' and some are the fishermen
But what e'er you're making you'll need no awaking
To the dangers involved for the ships on the sea

They're out in the ocean, the ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour, the crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowin' the ships in full sail

The seagulls are squawkin', they seem to be talkin'
Of this grandeous sight, it seems oh so leisurely
Summer is pleasin' but winter, it's teasin'
The storms will be blowin' the ships in the sea

They're out in the ocean, the ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour, the crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowin' the ships in full sail

They're out on the ocean the ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour the crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowin' the ships in full sail
