Lyrics
Bold Riley
Trad. and Original lyrics, Music by Rising Gael
Oh the rain it rains all day long
Bold Riley
And the northern winds blow so strong
Bold Riley
Come on Mary don't look so glum
Bold Riley
Come Sunday you'll be drinking rum
Bold Riley, o-has gone away
Were outward bound for the Bengal Bay
Bold Riley
Get bending it's a hell-of-a way
Bold Riley
When the winds blow helm's a-lee
Bold Riley
I long for the day you'll sail back to me
Bold Riley has gone away
CHO
Goodbye my sweetheart
Goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley Bold Riley
Goodbye my darling
Goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley has gone away
Bridge
