The Rocky Road To Dublin

de Cruachan

In the merry month of june
From me home I started
Left the girls of tuam nearly broken-hearted
Saluted father dear, kissed me darlin' mother
Drank a pint of beer
My grief and tears to smother
Then off to reap the corn
And leave where I was born
Cut a stout black-thorn to banish ghosts and goblins
A brand new pair of brogues
I rattled o'er the bogs
Frightened all the dogs
On the Rocky Road to Dublin

One two three four five
Hunt the hare and turn her
Down the Rocky Road and all the way to Dublin
Whack fol lal de da!

In mullingar that night I rested limbs so weary
Started by daylight next morning light and airy
Took a drop of the pure
To keep me heart from sinking
That's the paddy's cure
When'er he's on for drinking
To see the lasses smile, laughing all the while
At me curious style
Would set your heart a bubbling
They asked if I was hired, the wages I required
Till I was nearly tired
Of the Rocky Road to Dublin

In dublin next arrived, I thought it such a pity
To be so soon deprived a view of that fine city
Then I took a stroll all among the quality
Me bundle it was stole in a neat locality
Something crossed me mind
Then I looked behind
No bundle could I find upon me stick a wobblin'
Inquiring for the rogue
They said me connaught brogue
Wasn't much in vogue
On the Rocky Road to Dublin

From there I got away me spirits never failing
Landed on the quay as the ship was sailing
Captain at me roared, said that no room had he
When I jumped aboard, a cabin found for paddy
Down among the pigs I played some funny rigs
Danced some hearty jigs
The water round me bubblin'
When off to holyhead I wished meself was dead
Or better far instead
The Rocky Road to Dublin

The boys of liverpool, when we safely landed
Called meself a fool, I could no longer stand it
Blood began to boil, temper I was losin'
Poor old eierann's isle they began abusin'
Hurrah me soul says I shillelagh i let fly
Galway boys were by, saw i was a hobble in
Then with a loud hurrah, they joined in the affray
We quickly cleared the way
For the Rocky Road to Dublin
