Holy Ground The Wolfe Tones

As I rolled into Frisco, boys, I went upon the street
I drank and gambled all night long, as drunk as I could be
I drank and gambled all night long, till I could drink no more
'Twas then that I thought that I'd like to be back
In the Holy Ground once more

[Chorus]
Once more, boys, once more
The Holy Ground once more
'Twas then I that thought that I'd like to be back
In the Holy Ground once more

I shipped on the Angeline, me boys, down for the Arctic Sea
Where its cold winds blow amid frost and snow
Was as cold as it could be
Where cold winds blow amid frost and snow
The good old ship, she did roll

'Twas then that I thought that I'd like to be back
In the Holy Ground once more

[Chorus]
Once more, boys, once more
The Holy Ground once more
'Twas then I that thought that I'd like to be back
In the Holy Ground once more
