about

No justice for the have-nots.

lyrics

She stood with her bridegroom weeping at the altar
I was on a clipper bound for Gibraltar
Staring out at the Irish Sea
Longing for the love that could never be
Winnie was me darling me darling my darling
Winnie was me darling my darling girl

Our love was strong but our love was forbidden
Every kiss that we kissed was hidden
I was a catholic her father not
He cared not a wit what his daughter thought
Winnie was me darling me darling my darling
Winnie was me darling my darling girl

To prove to her father I'd be a worthy suitor
I bought him a goblet made out of pewter
He claimed I brought him a stolen cup
Called for the constable to lock me up
Winnie was me darling me darling my darling
Winnie was me darling my darling girl

The constable came to speak with her father
I broke free and ran for the water
At the docks I gave the constable the slip
I boarded an outbound merchant ship
Winnie was me darling me darling my darling
Winnie was me darling my darling girl

She stood with her bridegroom weeping at the altar
I was on a clipper bound for Gibraltar
Staring out at the Irish Sea
Longing for the love that could never be
Winnie was me darling me darling my darling
Winnie was me darling my darling girl
