galway ramblers - rocky road to dublin lyrics
in the merry month of june, from my home i started
left the girls of tuam, dearly broken hearted
saluted father dear, kissed my darlin’ mother
drank a pint of beer, my grief and tears to smother
then off to reap the corn, leave where i was born
with a stout blackth-rn, to banish ghost and goblins
brand new pair of brogues, rattlin’ o’er the bogs
and frightenin’ all the dogs, on the rocky road to dublin
one, two, three, four, five
hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
and all the ways to dublin
whack-fol-lol-de-ra
in mullingar that night, i rested limbs so weary
started by daylight, my spirits blithe and cheery
took a drop of the pure, keep my heart from sinkin’
that’s the paddy’s cure, whenever he’s up for drinking
i see the l-sses smile, laughing all the while
at your curious style, would set your heart a-bubblin’
asked if i was hired, wages i required
till i was nearly tired, of the rocky road to dublin
one, two, three, four, five
hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
and all the ways to dublin
whack-fol-lol-de-ra
in dublin next arrived, i thought it such a pity
to be so soon deprived, a view of that fine city
now then i took a stroll, all among the quality
bundle it was stole, all in the neat locality
something crossed my mind, when i looked behind
no bundle could i find, upon my stick a wobblin’
‘quirin’ for the rogue, said my connacht brogues
wasn’t much in vogue, on the rocky road to dublin
one, two, three, four, five
hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
and all the ways to dublin
whack-fol-lol-de-ra
from there i got away, my spirits never failin’
landed on the quay, just as the ship was sailin’
captain at me roared, said that no room had he
when i got aboard, a cabin found for paddy
down among the pigs, played some hearty rigs
danced some funny jigs, the water round me bubblin’
when off holyhead, wished myself was dead
or better far instead, on the rocky road to dublin
