Molly O'

Molly O' - Joe Bonamassa

Lyrics by：Tom Hambridge/Kevin Shirley/Joe Bonamassa

That ship for fools set sail

Wasn't long till it ran aground

You can hear the cries for mercy

You could hear that wailing sound

She was the last one to die

Of the two thousand souls

And the sea it took her gently

Delved in darkness and cold

Molly o

Like a ghost from the past

To her we raise a glass

Molly o

On the highest of tides

May she rise into the sky

She was born in the east of Glanmire

Just another sleepy Irish town

With a suitcase full of redemption

And a ticket for a ship that went down

No distress signal was sent

Molly o was twenty-two

When the surging walls of water

Turned it into a graveyard in blue

Molly o

Like a ghost from the past

To her we raise a glass

Molly o

On the highest of tides

May she rise into the sky

That ship for fools has sailed

Won't take long till it runs aground

You can hear those mamas weeping

From Halifax to London town

She dams sacred walls

And watched that black water rise

The ocean don't give up the dead

A bit of Molly still inside

Molly o

Like a ghost from the past

To her we raise a glass

Molly o

Through the lies and truths

Then you fell out of youth

Molly o

You can't let it roll

You gotta rise up the fall

Molly o

On the highest of tides

May she rise into the sky
