paddy reilly - dollymount strand lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
on dollymount strand on a cold winter’s night
i put on the hand brake and switched out the light
i looked at me bird and says i, “are you right?”
meself and the architect’s daughter

[chorus]
but the sea, oh the sea, it crept up on me
and the water was rising up quite rapidly
says i to the mot, “get your hand off me knee
can’t you see we’re surrounded by water?”

[verse 2]
i turned on the ignition and put it in gear
could i get it moving, lads? oh, not a fear
not if i was there for the next bl++dy year
there was sand in the old carburetor

[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, it crept up on me
and the water was rising up quite rapidly
says i to the mot, “get your hand off me knee
can’t you see we’re surrounded by water?”

[verse 3]
with water the car was soon filled to the brim
i said to the mot, “dear, the chances are slim
so love, get them off you, we’ll both have to swim.”
so i let down the window and scarpered
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, it crept up on me
and the water was rising up quite rapidly
says i to the mot, “get your hand off me knee
can’t you see we’re surrounded by water?”

[verse 4]
so if ever you down to dollymount strand
make sure that the tide’s out and everything’s grand
for a bird in the bush is worth two in the sand
regardless of what you are after

[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, it crept up on me
and the water was rising up quite rapidly
says i to the mot, “get your hand off me knee
can’t you see we’re surrounded by water?”
