Robert Shaw Bound For The Rio Grande Скачать

I'll sing you a song of the fish of the sea, Oh Rio
I'll sing you a song of the fish of the sea,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, love, away, Way down Rio
So fare ye well my pretty young girl
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

Sing good bye to Sally and good bye to Sue,
Oh Rio
And you who are listening, good bye to you
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, love, away, Way down Rio
So fare ye well my pretty young girl
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

Our ship went sailing out over the bar, Oh Rio
And we pointed her nose for the South-er-on Star
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

The oak, the ash, and the bonny birk tree,
Oh Rio
They're all blooming green in the North Country
And we're bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, love, away, Then away down Rio
So fare ye well my pretty young girl
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

Sung mostly when heaving up anchor, it was first sung in the Brazil trade and was inspired by the port and province of Rio Grande do Sul. It was a beautiful place and the sailors used to love it there.
