[Fiddle Intro]

[Verse 1]
We just lost sight of the Queensport light
Down the bay before us
And the wind has blown some cold today
With just a wee touch of snow
Along the shore from Lazy Head
Hard abeam Half Island
Tonight we'll let the anchor go
Down in Fogarty's Cove

[Verse 2]
My Sally's like the ravens wing
Her hair is like her mother's
With hands that make quick work of a chore
And eyes like the top of a stove
Come suppertime she'll walk the beach
Wrapped in my old duffle
With her eyes upon the masthead reach
Down in Fogarty's Cove

[Chorus]
She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Watch the comber's roll in
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
Down in Fogarty's Cove
She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Watch the comber's roll in
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
Down in Fogarty's Cove
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
She cries when I'm away to sea
Nags me when I'm with her
She'd rather I'd a government job
Or maybe go on the dole
But I love the waves as I pull about
Nose into the channel
My Sally keeps the supper and a bed for me
Down in Fogarty's Cove

[Chorus]
She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Watch the comber's roll in
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
Down in Fogarty's Cove
She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Watch the comber's roll in
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
Down in Fogarty's Cove
