Through misty eyes I see lonely skies Lonely road to babylon
Where’s my family my country Heaven knows where I belong
Pack my bags tonight Here’s one jacobite Who must leave or surely die
Put me on a train In pouring rain farewell but don’t say goodbye
Chorus: Seagull carry me, over land and sea To my own folk, that’s where I want be Every beat of my heart Tears me apart I’m lost and alone in the dark I’m going home
One more glass of wine Just for auld lang syne And the I left behind
How I miss her now In my darkest hour And the our arms entwine
Chorus
And drink a toast To the blood red rose Cheer a while the emerald isle
And to the lights And the swirling pipes How they make a grown man cry
