The Rocky Road to Dublin - Paddy Reilly/Tommy Makem[00:00:00]
In the merry month of June[00:00:00]
Spent from my home I started[00:00:03]
Left the girls of Tuam[00:00:04]
So sad and broken hearted[00:00:06]
Saluted father dear[00:00:07]
Kissed me darling mother[00:00:09]
Drank a pint of beer[00:00:10]
Grief and tears to smother[00:00:12]
Then off to reap the corn[00:00:13]
Leave where I was born[00:00:15]
Cut a stout blackthorn[00:00:16]
To banish ghost and goblin[00:00:18]
Bought a pair of brogues[00:00:20]
I rattled o'er the bogs[00:00:21]
And frightened all the dogs[00:00:22]
On the rocky road to Dublin[00:00:24]
One two three four five[00:00:26]
Hunt the hare and turn her[00:00:27]
Down the rocky road[00:00:29]
And all the ways to Dublin[00:00:30]
Whackfolloldera[00:00:32]
Cover her sing[00:00:34]
When in mullingar that night[00:00:36]
I rested limbs so weary[00:00:38]
Started by daylight[00:00:40]
Spairy light and dairy[00:00:41]
Took a drop of the pure[00:00:43]
To keep my heart from sinking[00:00:44]
That's a parish's cure[00:00:46]
Whene'er he's on for drinking[00:00:47]
To see the lasses smile[00:00:48]
Laughing all the while[00:00:50]
At my curious style[00:00:51]
Twould set your heart a bubbling[00:00:53]
Asked if I was hired[00:00:54]
The wages I required[00:00:56]
I was almost tired[00:00:57]
Of the rocky road to Dublin[00:00:59]
One two three four five[00:01:01]
Hunt the hare and turn her[00:01:02]
Down the rocky road[00:01:04]
And all the ways to Dublin[00:01:05]
Whackfolloldera[00:01:06]
Where in Dublin next arrived[00:01:10]
I thought it be a pity[00:01:13]
To be so soon deprived[00:01:14]
A view of that fine city[00:01:16]
So then I took a stroll[00:01:17]
Tip among the quality[00:01:19]
Bundle it was stole[00:01:20]
In a neat locality[00:01:21]
Something crossed my mind[00:01:23]
Then I looked behind[00:01:24]
No bundle could I find[00:01:26]
Upon my stick a wobbling[00:01:27]
Enquiring for the rogue[00:01:28]
Said my connacht brogue[00:01:30]
Wasn't much in vogue[00:01:31]
On the rocky road to Dublin[00:01:33]
One two three four five[00:01:35]
Hunt the hare and turn her[00:01:36]
Down the rocky road[00:01:38]
And all the ways to Dublin[00:01:39]
Whackfolloldera[00:01:40]
Well from there I got away[00:01:44]
My spirits never failing[00:01:46]
Landed on the quay[00:01:47]
Just how the ship was sailing[00:01:49]
Captain at me roared[00:01:50]
Said that no room had he[00:01:52]
When I jumped aboard[00:01:53]
A cabin found for paddy[00:01:54]
Down among the pigs[00:01:56]
I played some funny rigs[00:01:57]
Danced some hearty jigs[00:01:59]
The water round me bubbling[00:02:00]
When off holyhead[00:02:02]
I wished myself was dead[00:02:03]
Tip[00:02:04]
