I Knew Danny Farrell - The Dubliners[00:00:00]

I knew Danny Farrell when his football was a can[00:00:04]

With his hand-me-downs and Welliers and his sandwiches of bran[00:00:12]

But now that pavement peasant is a full grown bitter man[00:00:21]

With all the trials and troubles of his travelling people's clan[00:00:29]

He's a loser a boozer a me and you user[00:00:37]

A raider a trader a people police hater[00:00:42]

So lonely and only what you'd call a gurrier[00:00:46]

Still now Danny Farrell he's a man[00:00:50]

I knew Danny Farrell when he joined the National School[00:00:59]

He was lousy at the Gaelic they'd call him amadán a fooler[00:01:07]

He was brilliant in the toss school by trading objects in the pawn[00:01:15]

By the time he was an adult all his charming ways had gone[00:01:23]

I knew Danny Farrell when we queued up for the dole[00:01:34]

And he tried to hide the loss of pride that eats away the soul[00:01:42]

But mending pots and kettles is a trade lost in the past[00:01:51]

"There's no hand-out here for tinkers" was the answer[00:01:59]

When he asked[00:02:05]

He's a loser a boozer a me and you user[00:02:07]

A raider a trader a people police hater[00:02:12]

So lonely and only what you'd call a gurrier[00:02:16]

Still now Danny Farrell he's a man[00:02:21]

I still know Danny Farrell saw him just there yesterday[00:02:28]

Taking methylated spirits with some wino's on the quay[00:02:37]

Oh he's forty going on eighty with his eyes of hope bereft[00:02:45]

And he told me this for certain there's not many of us left[00:02:53]

He's a loser a boozer a me and you user[00:03:02]

A raider a trader a people police hater[00:03:06]

So lonely and only what you'd call a gurrier[00:03:10]

Still now Danny Farrell he's a man[00:03:15]
