Текст песни The Rocky Road to Dublin - The Chieftains
In
the
merry
month
of
May,
From
my
home
I
started,
Left
the
girls
of
Tuam,
Nearly
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,
And
leave
where
I
was
born,
I
cut
a
stout
blackthorn,
To
banish
ghost
and
goblin,
In
a
brand
new
pair
of
brogues,
I
rattled
o'er
the
bogs,
And
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
ways
to
Dublin,
Whack-fol-lol-de-ra.
In
Mullingar
that
night,
I
rested
limbs
so
weary,
Started
by
daylight,
Next
mornin'
light
and
airy,
Took
a
drop
of
the
pure,
To
keep
my
heart
from
sinkin',
That's
an
Irishman's
cure,
Whene'er
he's
on
for
drinking.
To
see
the
lasses
smile,
Laughing
all
the
while,
At
my
curious
style,
'Twould
set
your
heart
a-bubblin'.
They
ax'd
if
I
was
hired,
The
wages
I
required,
Till
I
was
almost
tired,
Of
the
rocky
road
to
Dublin.
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,
My
bundle
it
was
stole,
In
a
neat
locality;
Something
crossed
my
mind,
Then
I
looked
behind;
No
bundle
could
I
find,
Upon
my
stick
a
wobblin'.
Enquirin'
for
the
rogue,
They
said
my
Connacht
brogue,
Wasn't
much
in
vogue,
On
the
rocky
road
to
Dublin.
From
there
I
got
away,
My
spirits
never
failin'
Landed
on
the
quay
As
the
ship
was
sailin';
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
Holyhead,
I
wished
myself
was
dead,
Or
better
far
instead,
On
the
rocky
road
to
Dublin.
The
boys
of
Liverpool,
When
we
safely
landed,
Called
myself
a
fool;
I
could
no
longer
stand
it;
Blood
began
to
boil,
Temper
I
was
losin',
Poor
ould
Erin's
isle
They
began
abusin',
"Hurrah
my
soul,"
sez
I,
My
shillelagh
I
let
fly;
Some
Galway
boys
were
by,
Saw
I
was
a
hobble
in,
Then
with
a
loud
hurray,
They
joined
in
the
affray.
We
quickly
cleared
the
way,
For
the
rocky
road
to
Dublin.
