    Lyrics:
    Oh the rain it raineth all day long,
    Bold Riley O, Bold Riley,
    And those northern winds, are blowing on strong
    Bold Riley O has gone away.
    Chorus
    Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear O
    Bold Riley O, Bold Riley,
    Goodbye my darlin’, goodbye my dear O,
    Bold Riley O has gone away.
    Oh the anchor’s aweigh and the sails are set
    Bold Riley O, Bold Riley,
    And them Liverpool Judies we’ll ne’er forget
    Bold Riley O has gone away.
    We’re outward bound for the Bengal Bay,
    Bold Riley O, Bold Riley,
    Get crackin’ me lads, it’s a bloody long way
    Bold Riley O has gone away.
    Cheer up Mary Ellen, don’t you look so glum,
    Bold Riley O, Bold Riley,
    Come white-stocking day we’ll be drinking hot rum
    Bold Riley O has gone away.

    There's nothing like TLJ's harmony to accompany you driving the lonely road at night. Be it happy song like Hoist Up The Thing, or the subtle one like Bold Riley, or Bones In The Ocean. Just sing along, and the night road wouldn't feel too lonely.

      Drop in on Home Free... more wonderful harmonies. And one of the Home Free members, Adam Chance, joined TLJ's on their U.S. tour a couple of months back.

    Another great one. I'd love to see three fishers next, BUT NOT AS MUCH AS I WANT ALL THESE STUDIO SONGS ON A SPOTIFY ALBUM!!!! You can do what Sean Dagher did with his shanty of the week series/album. These studio songs are probably your best works and it's a shame to see them stuck on CZcams

    Is it just my ears, or is this mixed low to the left and high to the right? The sound is amazing in headphones!

    • @Andipants26
      @Andipants26 Před 26 dny

      Yeah sounds like it's by voice; JD (bass) is mostly to the left and Robbie (high harmony) is mostly to the right, with Andy (lead) in the middle. Ironically, opposite to the way they're sat on the couch

      @ProfesoraNut i listened to the premier straight from my phone speakers and didn't notice it. Re listened once i put my over ear headphones on, and I picked up on it quickly. I could still hear it a little in the opposite ear, but it was definitely more prominent on either side.

    I love that I keep forgetting when these are due (not lack of interest, I just lose track of the days). It's such a tonic to be greeted with a notification that a new one is here. Really love this one, beautifully sung by all, but Andy in lead is particularly prevalent among my top favourite recordings.

    Why don’t you guys perform like this in your concerts? During the Chicago concert my husband left. He could hear you guys outside of the hall. You don’t need the drums, the flashing lights or the raucous music. You just need the three of you. Without the nonsense, you are perfect.
