Paddy Goes To Holyhead - Seldom Sober Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The hills of Connemara, banks of my lovely Lee
  • So I tuned up my fiddle in the town of Ballybay
  • Oh sing for me and think of me she mournfully did say
  • Sure I?m an Ulster Orangeman from Erin?s Isle I came
  • Pure old Dicey Riley I?m still haunted by your name
  • I am a little beggarman and beggin? I have been
  • In Dr. Johnson?s motorcar I?ll take you home Kathleen
  • [chorus:]
  • I?ve been a wild rover
  • and I?ve been seldom sober
  • Drank many a pint topped up with foam
  • I tramped the world over
  • from Brisbane to Dover
  • But I long to be back home
  • Limerick you?re a lady in the merry month of may
  • As I rode out to Galway-Town me heart is growing grey
  • If I were King of Ireland and all thing at my will
  • I followed Captain Farrell and young Eamonn of the hill
  • A long way to Tipparary a long way from Clare to here
  • Now I curse the time it takes to reach my Cavan girl so fair
  • Tis of a brave young highwayman this story I will tell
  • You may talk and write and boast about and bid your last farewell
  • [chorus]
