Ballinderry

Ballinderry - The Clancy Brothers

'Tis pretty to be in ballinderry

Pretty to be in aughalee

'Tis prettier to be on bonny ram's island

A-sittin' forever beneath a tree

O chone o chone

O chone o chone

For often I sailed to bonny ram's island

Arm in arm with phelim my demon

And he would whistle and I would sing

And we would make the whole island ring

O chone o chone

O chone o chone

I'm goin' he said from bonny ram's island

Out and across the deep blue sea

And if in your heart you love me mary

Open your arms at last to me

O chone o chone

O chone o chone

'Twas pretty to be in ballinderry

Now it's sad as sad can be

For the ship that sailed with phelim my demon

Is sunk forever beneath the sea

O chone o chone

O chone o chone
