I Wish I Were Back In Liverpool - The Dubliners[00:00:01]
I wish I was back in Liverpool[00:00:03]
Liverpool town where I was born[00:00:09]
Where there ain't no trees, no scent[00:00:16]
Of grease, no field's of waving corn[00:00:19]
But there's lots of girls with peroxide[00:00:23]
Curls and the black and tan flows free[00:00:26]
There's six in a bed by the old pier head[00:00:29]
And it's Liverpool town for me[00:00:33]
'Tis seven long years since I wandered[00:00:38]
Away to sail the wild world o'er[00:00:41]
Me very first trip on an old steam ship[00:00:48]
That was bound for Baltimore[00:00:52]
I was seven days sick and I just couldn't[00:00:54]
Stick that bobbin' up and down[00:00:59]
So I told them "Jack, you'd better turn[00:01:04]
Back for dear old Liverpool town"[00:01:07]
I wish I was back in Liverpool[00:01:12]
Liverpool town where I was born[00:01:17]
Where there ain't no trees, no scent of grease[00:01:24]
No field's of waving corn[00:01:27]
But there's lots of girls with peroxide curls[00:01:30]
And the black and tan flows free[00:01:34]
There's six in a bed by the old pier head[00:01:36]
And it's Liverpool town for me[00:01:41]
We dug the Mersey tunnel, boys[00:01:47]
Way back in thirty-three[00:01:50]
Dug an hole in the ground until[00:01:54]
We found an hold called Wallasey[00:01:57]
Then the foreman cried "Come on[00:02:01]
Outside! The roof is fallin' down"[00:02:03]
While I'm tellin' you, Jack, we all swum[00:02:08]
Back to dear old Liverpool town[00:02:11]
I wish I was back in Liverpool[00:02:16]
Liverpool town where I was born[00:02:22]
Where there ain't no trees, no scent[00:02:28]
Of grease, no field's of waving corn[00:02:31]
But there's lots of girls with peroxide[00:02:35]
Curls and the black and tan flows free[00:02:38]
There's six in a bed by the old pier head[00:02:41]
And it's Liverpool town for me[00:02:45]
There's every race and colour of face[00:02:50]
There's every kind of name[00:02:54]
But the pigeons on the pier head they[00:02:57]
Treat you all the same[00:03:00]
And if you walk up upon Parlament[00:03:04]
Street you'll get faces black and brown[00:03:06]
And I've also seen the orange-green[00:03:11]
In dear old Liverpool town[00:03:14]
I wish I was back in Liverpool[00:03:19]
Liverpool town where I was born[00:03:23]
Where there ain't no trees, no scent[00:03:30]
Of grease, no fiel's of waving corn[00:03:33]
But there's lots of girls with peroxide[00:03:37]
Curls and the black and tan flows free[00:03:39]
There's six in a bed by the old pier head[00:03:44]
And it's Liverpool town for me[00:03:47]
