The Rare Auld Times - The Dubliners[00:00:00]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:00:03]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:00:11]

Raised on songs and stories heroes of re-known[00:00:24]

The passing tales and glories that once was Dublin town[00:00:32]

The hallowed halls and houses the haunting childrens' rhymes[00:00:42]

That once was Dublin city in the rare old times[00:00:51]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:01:01]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:01:09]

My name it is Sean Demspey as Dublin as can be[00:01:21]

Born hard and late in Pimlico in a house that ceased to be[00:01:30]

By trade I was a cooper lost out to redundancy[00:01:40]

Like my house that fell to progress my trade's a memory[00:01:49]

And I callled Peggy Dignan as pretty as you please[00:02:01]

A rogue and a child of Mary from the rebel liberties[00:02:10]

I lost her to a student chap with a skin as black as coal[00:02:20]

When he took her off to Birmingham she took away my soul[00:02:29]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:02:39]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:02:47]

The years have made me bitter the gargle dims me brain[00:03:09]

'Cause Dublin keeps on changing and nothing stays the same[00:03:19]

The Pillar and the Met have gone the Royal long since pulled down[00:03:28]

As the great unyielding concrete makes a city of my town[00:03:37]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:03:48]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:03:56]

Fare thee well sweet Anna Liffey I can no longer stay[00:04:08]

And watch the new glass cages that spring up along the quay[00:04:17]

My mind's too full of memories too old to hear new chimes[00:04:26]

I'm part of what was Dublin in the rare old times[00:04:36]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:04:46]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:04:54]

Ring a ring a rosie as the light declines[00:05:04]

I remember Dublin city in the rare old times[00:05:13]
