The Irish Descendants

The Irish Descendants are a folk group from the Atlantic province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. All the members, born of Irish emitters, were workers in the Newfoundland fishing industry before forming the band in 1990 out of the remnants of two former Newfoundland bands – The Descendants and Irish Coffee. The group helped to popularise traditional Newfoundland music to a wider Canadian audience in the early 1990s, along with other bands such as Great Big Sea.

Its another day we go 
Sailing o're the blue
I look to the horizon
My thoughts drift home to you

a young man only seventeen
Adventure could'nt wait
Set sail from home on a fishing ship
Bound for the boston state

I shipped out on a glouster smack
And fished the georges bank
The work was hard
And the wages fare
To the good lord I gave thanks

although I've had a good life
As good as any man
If I could change the course of time
Id live in my home land

chorus:
My thoughts are always with you
Have you changed since I've been gone
Oh how I long to see you
The time has been so long
If I could get just one more chance
To walk your rugged shore
Id train the life I chose to make
And go to sea no more

last night as I lay dreaming
I sailed the raging foam
My ship she took me far away
To the rocky shores of home

and I could write a thousand lines
To say just how I feel
I hope and pray that some fine day
My dreams they can be real

Chorus: repeat 2 times

id train the life I chose to make
And go to sea no more
