Current song lyrics
I remember the night that he came in from the wintery cold and damp<br />A giant of a man in an oilskin coat, and a bundle that told he was a tramp<br />He stood at the bar and he called a pint, then turned and gazed at the fire<br />On a night like this, to be save and dry is my one and only desire <br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"<br /><br />Then in a voice that was hushed and low he said "Listen, I'll tell you a tale"<br />How a man of the sea became a man of the road and never more will set sail<br />I fished out of Howth and Killybegs, Ardglass and Baltimore<br />But the cruel sea has beat'n me and I'll end my days on the shore <br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"<br /><br />One fateful night in the wind and the rain we set sail from Killybegs town<br />There were five of us from sweet Donegal and one from County Down<br />We were fishermen who worked the sea and never counted the cost<br />But I never thought 'ere that night was done, that my fine friends would all be lost <br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"<br /><br />Then the storm it broke and drove the boat, to the rocks about ten miles from shore<br />As we fought the tide, we hoped inside to see our homes once more<br />Then we struck a rock and holed the bow and all of us knew that she'd go down<br />So we jumped right into the icy sea and prayed to God we wouldn't drown <br /><br />But the ragin' sea was risin' still as we struck out for the land<br />And she fought with all her cruelty to claim that gallant band<br />By Saint John's point in the early dawn I dragged myself on the shore<br />And I cursed the sea for what she'd done and vowed to sail her never more <br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"<br /><br />Ever since that night I've been on the road, travelin' and tryin' to forget<br />That awful night I lost all my friends, I see their faces yet<br />And often at night when the sea is high and the rain is tearing at my skin<br />I hear the cries of drowning men, floating over on the wind <br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"<br /><br />So here's to those that are dead and gone, the friends that I loved dear<br />And here's to you and I'll bid you adieu, sayin' "Donegal Danny's been here, me boys, <br />Donegal Danny's been here"
