Karaoké Black Rose, a Rock Legend Thin Lizzy

Tell me the legends of long ago

When the kings and queens would dance in the realm of the Black Rose

Play me their melodies

I want to know so I can teach my children oh

Pray tell me the story of young Cuchulain

How his eyes were dark his expression Sullen

And how he'd fight and always won

And how they cried when he was fallen

Oh tell me the story of the Queen of this land

And how her sons died at her own hand

And how fools obey commands

Oh tell me the legends of long ago

Where the mountains of Mourne come down to the sea

Will she no' come back to me will she no' come back to me

Oh Shenandoah

I hear you calling far away you rollin' river

Roll down the mountain side on down on down go lassie go

Oh tell me the legends of long ago

When the kings and queens would dance in the realms of the Black Rose

And play me their melodies so that I might know and I can tell my children oh

My Roisin Dubh is my one and only true love

It was a joy that Joyce brought to me

While William Butler waits

And Oscar he's goin' Wilde

Ah sure Brendan where have you Behan

Lookin' for a girl with green eyes

My dark Rosaleen is my colleen

That Georgie knows Best

But Van is the man

Starvation once again

Drinkin' whiskey in the jar oh synge's playboys of the western world

As Shaw Sean

I was born and reared there

Where the mountains of Mourne

Come down to the sea it's such a long

Long way from Tipperary oh Robert
