Flying o'er the sea My guitar and me Forty thousand feet What a brilliant feat Go west, don't go east A famine or a feast We're treated better there

I sing the song of the colony How many years and you're still not free And your mother cries and you ask god why Greed is the knife and the scars run

You look around, you say what's up You see another Irishman taking to the 'sup You see that's the way That's the way they came You look around, you say
Oh, your pretty smile banish any gloom And when I frown I feel unsound, I drag you down to ground level I interrupt your flyin' high and summer sky in

Flying o'r the sea, My guitar and me. Thirty thousand feet, What a brilliant feat. Go west, don't go east, A famine or a feast. We're treated better
And when I frown I feel unsound I drag you down to ground level I interrupt your flyin' high and summer sky in your mind But then you grab me by the scruff
