Up The Shore (Irish Version)

[Verse] Up the shore where the waves kiss the stone From St. John’s harbor to places unknown The gulls are laughing The salt air’s alive Oh The Irish Loop’s where the heart will thrive [Chorus] Down the Irish Loop Up the shore We go Through the towns where the breezes blow Petty Harbour Bay Bulls Witless Bay Sing a tune and we’re on our way [Verse 2] Ferryland’s cliffs stand bold and true The lighthouse watching the ocean blue Calvert whispers with tales of old Down through Fermeuse Where stories are told [Prechorus] Mist on the hills Tales in the air Every step’s a memory Beyond compare [Chorus] Down the Irish Loop Up the shore We go Through the towns where the breezes blow Renews Cappahayden Trepassey too Raise your glass to the Loop’s fine view [Bridge] The fiddles play The bodhrán beats In every town There’s dancing feet The spirit’s strong The ale is sweet Up the shore Life’s song repeats
