[Verse 1] Well who wouldn’t be a sailor ladsailing on the main To gain the good will of his captain’s good name He came ashore one evening for to be And that was the beginning of me old true love and me. [Chorus] And it’s home boys homehome I’d like to be Home for a while in me own country Where the Oak and the Ashand the bonny Rowan tree Are all growing greener in the old country. [Verse 2] Well I asked her for a candle for to light me way to bed And likewise for a handkerchief to tie around me head She tended to me needs like a young maid aught to do And then I said to her now would you leap in with me too. [Chorus] And it’s home boys homehome I’d like to be Home for a while in me own country Where the Oak and the Ashand the bonny Rowan tree Are all growing greener in the old country. [Verse 3] Well she jumped into bed making no alarm Thinking a young sailor lad could do to her no harm Well I hugged her and I kissed her the whole night long Till she wished the short nighthad been seven years long. [Chorus] And it’s home boys homehome I’d like to be Home for a while in me own country Where the Oak and the Ashand the bonny Rowan tree Are all growing greener in the old country. [Verse 4] Well early next morning the sailor lad arose And into Mary’s apron threw a handful of gold Saying take this me dear for the mischief that I’ve done For tonight I fear I’ve left you with a daughter or a son. [Chorus] And it’s home boys homehome I’d like to be Home for a while in me own country Where the Oak and the Ashand the bonny Rowan tree Are all growing greener in the old country. [Verse 5] Well if it be a girl child send her out to nurse With gold in her pocket and silver in her purse And if it be a boy childhe’ll ware the jacket blue And go climbing up the riggin like his daddy used to do. [Chorus] And it’s home boys homehome I’d like to be Home for a while in me own country Where the Oak and the Ashand the bonny Rowan tree Are all growing greener in the old country.

La chanson évoque la vie d'un jeune marin qui se remémore son passage sur terre et l'amour qu'il a trouvé lors d'une de ses escapades. En naviguant sur l'océan, il aspire à retourner dans son pays d'origine, un lieu empreint de souvenirs et de nature, où les arbres majestueux croissent en abondance. Lors d'une rencontre intime, il montre son affection pour une jeune femme, et sa légèreté semble s'accompagner de la promesse de conséquences futures, peut-être avec la naissance d'un enfant. Les images de la nature et des liens affectifs renforcent le désir de retrouver ses racines et la chaleur du foyer. C'est un hymne à l'amour et au sentiment d'appartenance, où le marin rêve d'un retour à la simplicité de sa terre natale.
