My Old Home Town The sea breeze gently wipes away The teardrops from my face, As I say my fond farewell, To this quiet place. The souvenirs that I have found, Will comfort me a bit, A rock, a nail, a piece of wood, A shawl my mother knit. These flower seeds from the flowers, That grew where our home once stood, Makes me wish that I could stay, I only wish I could. The old rusty horseshoe I found, Down by the well, It must have come from Dowdow, Daisy or Nell. I can hear the old piano, And a hundred dancing feet, To the tune of Sailor`s Horn Pipe, At the returning of the fleet. There`s one more thing that I must pack, Into my old suitcase, It`s a painting of Bay Bulls Harbour, This oh, so beautiful place.
