Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile And all around the borders of Erin's green isle And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons verse 1: Now our good ship was ready at the dawning of the day From lovely Enniskillen, they were marching us away They put us all onboard a ship to cross the raging Main For to fight a bloody battle in the sunny land of Spain Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile And all around the borders of Erin's green isle And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons verse 2: Now, Spain it is a gallant land where wine and ale flow free There's many a lovely women to dandle on your knee And often an alehouse, we would make the rafters ring When every soldier in the house would raise his glass and sing Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile And all around the borders of Erin's green isle And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons verse 3: We fought for Ireland's glory there and many a man did fall From musket and from bayonet and from thundering cannonball And many a foeman we laid low amid the battle throng And as we prepared for action, you would often hear this song Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile And all around the borders of Erin's green isle And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons verse 4: And well, now, the war is over and for home we have set sail And the flag upon our lofty ship is fluttering in the gale They have given us a pension of fourpence a day And when we reach Enniskillen, never more we'll have to say Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile And all around the borders of Erin's green isle And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons
