Gaelic Storm - The Ferrymen Lyrics
Oh the little boats have gone,From the breast of Anna Liffey,And the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai,The Dublin docks are dying,And a way of life is goneIt's over Molly, over can't you seeWhere the strawberry beds,Sweep down to the Liffey,You'll kiss away the troubles from my browI love you well todayAnd I'll love you more tomorrow,If you ever love meMolly, love me now!Now the only job I had,It was hard, but never lonely.The river ferry made a man of me.And it's gone without a whisper,And forgotten even now.And Molly it was part of you and me!Where the strawberry beds,Sweep down to the Liffey,You'll kiss away the troubles from my browI love you well todayAnd I'll love you more tomorrow,If you ever love meMolly, love me now!And now my work is over,And I'll spend my days in rovin'.I'll hear them whisper, "Charlie's on the dole..."But Molly we're still livin',And darlin' we're still young,And the river never ruled my heart or soul!Where the strawberry beds,Sweep down to the Liffey,You'll kiss away the troubles from my browI love you well todayAnd I'll love you more tomorrow,If you ever love meMolly, love me now!Where the strawberry beds,Sweep down to the Liffey,You'll kiss away the troubles from my browI love you well todayAnd I'll love you more tomorrow,If you ever love meMolly, love me now!Oh the little boats have gone,From the breast of Anna Liffey,And the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai,The Dublin docks are dying,And a way of life is goneIt's over Molly, over can't you seeIt's over Molly, over can't you seeIt's overMolly, it's overMolly, can't you seeMolly, it's over, MollyCan't you see
