Karaoké Rocky Road to Dublin Sinners (film)

Then off to reap the corn

And leave where I was born

I cut a stout black thorn for to banish ghosts and goblins

A brand-new pair of brogues to rattle over the bogs

And frightened all the dogs on the rocky road to Dublin

One two three four five

Well in the merry month of May from me home I started

Left, the girls of Tuam were nearly broken-hearted

Saluted father dear

Kissed me darling mother

Drank a pint of beer

My grief and tears to smother

Then off to reap the corn

Leave where I was born

Cut a stout black thorn to banish ghosts and goblins

Brand-new pair of brogues

Rattling over the bogs

And frightened all the dogs on the rocky road to Dublin

One two three four five

Hunt the hare and turn her

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road down the rocky road

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

In Mullingar that night

I rested limbs so weary

Started by daylight next morning bright and airy

Took a drop of the pure to keep me heart from sinking

That's the Paddy's cure whenever he's on for drinking

To hear the lassies smile

Laughing all the while at me curious style

It would set your heart a-bubbling

Asked me was I hired

Wages I required

'Till I was almost tired of the rocky road to Dublin

One two three four five

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

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

Bundle it was stole in a neat locality

Something crossed me mind when I looked behind

No bundle could I find upon me stick a-wobbling

Enquiring for the rogue said me Connaught brogue

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

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

From there I got away

My spirits never failing

From there I got away

My spirits never failing

Landed on the cage just as the ship was sailing

Landed on the cage just as the ship was sailing

Captain at me roared

Said that no room had he

Captain at me roared

Said that no room had he

When I jumped aboard a cabin found for Paddy

When I jumped aboard a cabin found for Paddy

Down among the pigs

Played some funny rigs

Down among the pigs

Played some funny rigs

Danced some hearty jigs

The water 'round me bubbling

Danced some hearty jigs

The water 'round me bubbling

Off to Holyhead

Off to Holyhead

Wished me-self was dead

Wished me-self was dead

Or better far instead on the rocky road to Dublin

Or better far instead on the rocky road to Dublin

One two three four five

One two three four five

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road

Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

And all the way to Dublin

Whack-follol-le-dah

The boys of Liverpool when we safely landed

The boys of Liverpool when we safely landed called me-self a fool

I could no longer stand it called me-self a fool

I could no longer stand it

Blood began to boil

Temper I was losing

Blood began to boil

Temper I was losing

Poor old Erin's Isle they began abusing

Poor old Erin's Isle they began abusing

Hurrah me soul says I

Shillelagh I let fly

Hurrah me soul says I

Shillelagh I let fly

Galway boys were by and saw I was a-hobbling

Galway boys were by and saw I was a-hobbling

With a loud Hurray

With a loud Hurray joining in the affray joining in the affray

We quickly cleared the way on the rocky road to Dublin
