As the train pulls out today
from Derry city, A thousand memories
linger in my mind,
Why do I have to go, it's such a pity,
And all the dear old friends
I leave behind
As I gaze across the harbor I'm recalling,
Familiar names like Doherty and Coyle,
Through misty eyes
I feel the teardrops falling,
Goodbye to my old hometown
on the Foyle
The spire of Saint Eugene's
seems to vanish, In the distance
o’er the city seems so high,
My childhood dreams,
they never seemed to vanish,
When I wondered if
they reached up to the sky.
Many thousand miles
I've travelled on my journey,
To a new home on
the wild Austrailian soil,
But never can I hope
to lose the yearning,
To return to my old hometown
on the Foyle
No, never can I hope
to lose the yearning,
To return to my old hometown
on the Foyle
