I cursed the day I could'nt get to Arranmore; I was traveling around Donegal and was advised to go, but could'nt get a stay in B/port, some friendly guy in O'Donnell's Bar said to give Oscar a knock, but didn't have the nerve, ended up backing into a pot hole damaging exhaust and had to sleep in the car overnight after 6pnts of the black stuff, I was froze. I would love to go back and visit.
We gathered in the evening, We scattered with the first light of the dawn, To say farewell to Arran, Cause me and Sally Coyle were movin on, Our last night on the island, Sally sang the rose me father cried, And when the song was over said goodbye Oh and the seagulls screamed above us, As we pulled out from the pier, Through the misty morning rain, The island slowly disappeared, We sat on empty barrels of beer, Was drunk the night before, And I cursed the day I left Arranmore
