The Rocky Road to Dublin - Luke Kelly
In the merry month of june from me home I started Left the girls of tuam nearly broken hearted Saluted father dear kissed me darlin'mother Drank a pint of beer My grief and tears to smother Then off to reap the corn and leave where I was born Cut a stout black thorn to banish ghosts and goblins A brand new pair of brogues I rattled o'erthe bogs Frightened 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 way to dublin Whack fol lal de da In mullingar that night I rested limbs so weary Started by daylight next morning light and airy Took a drop of the pure To keep me heart from sinking That'sthe paddy'scure When'erhe'son for drinking To see the lasses smile laughing all the while At me curious style Would set your heart a bubbling They asked if I was hired the 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 way to dublin Whack fol lal de da In mullingar that night I rested limbs so weary Started by daylight next morning light and airy Took a drop of the pure To keep me heart from sinking That'sthe paddy'scure When'erhe'son for drinking To see the lasses smile laughing all the while At me curious style Would set your heart a bubbling They asked if I was hired the 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 way to dublin Whack fol lal de da In dublin next arrived I thought it such a pity To be so soon deprived a view of that fine city Then I took a stroll all among the quality Me bundle it was stole in a neat locality Something crossed me mind then I looked behind No bundle could I find upon me stick a wobblin Inquiring for the rogue They said me c onnaught brogue Wasn'tmuch 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 way to dublin Whack fol lal de da From there I got away me spirits never failing Landed on the quay as the ship was sailing Captain at me roared said that no room had he When I jumped aboard a cabin found for paddy Down among the pigs I played some funny rigs Danced some hearty jigs the water round me bubblin When off to holyhead I wished meself was dead Or better far instead the rocky road to dublin One two three four five hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road and all the way to dublin Whack fol lal de da The boys of liverpool when we safely landed Called meself a fool I could no longer stand it Blood began to boil temper I was losin Poor old eierann'sisle they began abusin Hurrah me soul says I shillelagh I let fly Galway boys were by saw I was a hobble in then with a loud hurrah They joined in the affray We quickly cleared the way for the rocky road to dublin One two three four five hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road and all the way to dublin Whack fol lal de da Guitar score
