Harry Found A Hero
By Paul McCann
Harry went to sea and sent home the money
to his Mammy that he loved with all his heart .
On the boats he learnt the ropes
and built up all his hopes
in the sunrise as every new day would start .
He dreamt of happiness and finding success
at home in the place he loved best .
Harry found a hero in his heart
and from that day , he made a brand new start ,
He had a dream no one could see
of a wife a family
and he would never again be the sailor who goes to sea
He returned upon tide to be there at the side
of his wife who was sick and Harry realised ,
he would go to sea no more
and he cared for the one who he adored
Mary Ann the light of his every sunrise .
After 15 years has passed
Mary’s life had ended fast
with Harry left like a stranger on the shore,
then some killers came to the door
and shot Harry for the faith he bore
and his children never saw their Daddy anymore.
