This is the day the fisherman likes and so do I
when the rain puts a shine on the chestnut spikes and Curlews cry,
the Nightingale sings her best,
we'll drink a pint in Hamilton's Rest
The girl I love wore a muslin dress
the fishermen dream of the sun in the west
and So Do
Chorus
Now I can see. Since the girl that I love dearly,
has cast her loving spell on me.
This is the day the cuckoo likes and so do I
The hills fall down in different shapes and swallows fly
to a hidden beach where boats can't go
mountain rivers overflow
I hear the squealing of the seagulls as home they go
And So Do I
Chorus
Now I can see....etc
I'll cross the Seven Oceans
forever more I'll wander
'Til she has cast her loving spell on me.
