The Maid of Cabra West (Irish Traditional) - Quadriga Consort[00:00:00]

It was all for the love of that fair young maid[00:00:21]

That in Cabra West did reside[00:00:23]

Meself I live up in Donnybrook[00:00:26]

It's a one-and-a-fipenny ride[00:00:28]

But there was a fly in the ointment now[00:00:31]

That you very seldom see[00:00:33]

For although I loved her terrible well[00:00:36]

She was in love with a Portugee[00:00:38]

Now he was a nasty piece of goods[00:00:45]

Gonzales was his name[00:00:47]

For we couldn't wait till he got his hands[00:00:51]

On Concepta who was me dame[00:00:54]

So I made a vow be the Grand Canal[00:00:57]

That I would do him in[00:01:00]

'Cos I didn't think much of them Portugees[00:01:03]

And in particular I didn't like him[00:01:05]

So I follied them up to Grafton Street[00:01:31]

One evening' just for one[00:01:34]

Around by the Mercer's Hospital[00:01:37]

It's next door to the Bartley Dunne[00:01:39]

Sure I spied them sitting' in the corner seat[00:01:42]

They was kissing and holding hands[00:01:44]

Ah There he was seducing her[00:01:47]

With pints of Babycham[00:01:50]

So I follied him up to his lodgings[00:01:56]

In Rathgar or thereabouts[00:01:58]

And as he was going up an alleyway[00:02:01]

I battered him inside out[00:02:03]

He gave out many's the curse and swear[00:02:06]

'Til he was dead I'm sure[00:02:09]

Then I lifted up the manhole lid[00:02:11]

And I dropped him down the sewer[00:02:14]

Now when the mot she heard of this[00:02:27]

She made me life a hell[00:02:29]

And just for the sake of peace and quiet[00:02:32]

I did her in as well[00:02:34]

And now I'm up before the judge[00:02:37]

To answer for my crime[00:02:39]

He says I wouldn't mind the first one Son[00:02:42]

Ah but not the second time[00:02:45]

So it's all for the love of that fair young maid[00:02:47]

And her Portugee sailor boy[00:02:50]

For the passionate love of that fair young maid[00:02:52]

I landed in Mountjoy[00:02:55]

And if ever I get out again[00:02:57]

I'll change me ways you'll see[00:03:00]

And I'll marry with a man from Walkinstown[00:03:03]

Who wouldn't look at a Portugee[00:03:05]
