dervish - the rambling irishman lyrics

[verse 1]
i am a rambling irishman
in ulster i was born in
and many happy hours i spent
on the banks of sweet lough erne
but to live poor i could not endure
as others of my station
to america i sailed away
and left this irish nation
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy

[verse 2]
the night before i sailed away
i spent it with my darling
from 3 o’clock in the afternoon
’til the break of the day next morning
but when that we were going to part
we linked in each other’s arms
well you may be sure, and very true
it wounded both our charms
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy
[verse 3]
the very first night i slept on board
i dreamt about my nancy
i dreamt i held her in my arms
and well she pleased my fancy
but when i woke out of my sleep
and i found my bosom empty
well you may be sure, and very sure
that i lay discontented
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy

[verse 4]
when we arrived at the other side
we were both stout and healthy
we cast our anchor in the bay
going down to philadelphia
so let every lad link with his lass
in blue jacket and white trousers
and let every lass link with her lad
blue petticoat and white flounces

[outro]
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy
ry tan tin+a+na, tan tin+a+na
ry tan tin+a+noora nandy
