Seán O'Meara - Free (Live at the Millenium Theatre)

Crossing the ocean, to the land of the free
We've been travelling a long time in search of Liberty
We've been famished, we've been starved
We've been beaten and scarred
Left with no choice but to leave the homeland
Oh there's nothing for us left
No hope, no bread
No crop for us to harvest
No chance of getting fed
So I'll travel, I will go on this coffin ship oh
Drink a health to my loved ones behind
Sail me into my dreams
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
And I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
Until we're free…
You and me, until Ireland is free
And we'll dance and we'll sing, the way it's meant to be
And we'll laugh and we'll cry and we'll drink the bar dry
Reminisce on our loved ones behind
Oh…
Sail me into my dreams
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
Until we're free…
Sail me into my dreams
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
Until we're free…
