As I was going over the Cork & Kerry
mountains I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was counting I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya * Chorus Musha ring dum a doo dum a da Whack for my daddy-o Whack for my daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar-o I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly She swore that she'd love me Never would she leave me But the devil take that woman for you know she treat me easy * Repeat Chorus Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber Taking my money with me and I never knew the danger For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels * Repeat Chorus Now some men like the fishing And some men like the fowling And some men like to hear a cannon ball roaring Me I like sleeping specially in my Molly's chamber But here I am in prison Here I am with a ball and chain yeah |

She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes And said "Ooh I'd do anything for you 'cause you're a rocker" That's right I'm a rocker! I'm a roller too, honey I'm a rocker!

In the dismal darkness
I have sat and gazed, amazed At the blazing factories Like a lonely man Who stands on the seashore and I am afraid As weary as I be I try I see my sceen To looks ok Run, boy, run in your skin Look what the wind just blew in Many lovely ladies I have felt, touched And I was not afraid I took them out dancing Fool out romancing And I was not afriad Then somewhere from the north This gale I knew just flew in And I am afraid Run, boy, run in your skin Look what the wind just blew in Run, boy, run in your skin Look what the wind just blew in Run, you got to run in your skin Look what the wind just blew in Look what the wind just blew in You got to look what the wind just blew in Oh, You got to look what the wind just blew in |

The senorita took off her bobby socks She said she's gonna wear a skirt that shocks She's pulling out all the stops To get her Randolph back again Meanwhile Randolph, he's back at the ranch He's getting ready for tonight's song and dance He's doesn't know he doesn't stand a chance His last affair will be his last romance The senorita will be there waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me Underneath the Latin moonlight The danced and seen a falling star in flight To the strum of guitars she held him tight She wants her Randolph back again Meanwhile it's worthwhile for Randolph to wait 'Till he gets the nerve then he won't hesitate He doesn't know but he's just bit the bait He just asked if he could make a date The senorita will be there waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me The senorita's heart is in love She wearing white tonight, looks as pure as a dove She's thanking God and all the heavenly stars above Randolph's romance is back again Meanwhile Randolph smiles and says he'll give her ten She doesn't come so he just counts again And he's been there since he does not know when He's thinks she's stood him up but in the end The senorita won't keep him waiting Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me ooh la-la... Senorita dance cheek to cheek ooh la-la... We will dance off into the sky |

So we packed our bags and headed for the North sea There was Eric, Brian, Freaky Pete, Charlie, Frankie Lee and me I was feeling homesick but I was in good company We went sailing We came ashore long before the fighting broke Saw the sign and headed for the big smoke We met an old woman of the roads, she said "This life is but a joke" But we kept on trucking I'm always thinking, I'm thinking I'm thinking how much I think about it all While you're just dreaming, just dreaming, just dreaming Had you dreamt it all But I'm the one who's fallen The one you hear Here calling across your floor Here I go again feeling low down I'll never know, but then I came from the wrong side of town We were like the lonesome outlaws We would go which way the wind did blow Down the open trail that nobody knows Sometimes it gets lonesome But there you go feeling low down |

Up till now I used to pass my time
Drinking beer so slowly, sometimes wine No God, air, water or sunshine And honesty was my only excuse I took your love and I used it Up till now my youthful stage A useless rage, a torn out page, a worn out gauge A dirty shade, a big charade, a has been made And honesty was my only excuse I took your love and I used it I never, I never, I never Up till now my love life A few sweet kisses, a little missus, a fork and knife a happy home, a hand to hold, a land to roam And honesty was my only excuse I took my life in my own hands and I abused it Up till now I used to tap dance Take a girl by the hand saying I need your , I need your romance Oh I had so many chances And honesty was my only excuse I took your love and abused it Up till now the path of life was fair enough Enough was fair, all was right And now I know, I see the light And honesty was my only excuse |

After our affair I swore that I'd leave Dublin And in that line I'd left behind The years, the tears, the memories and you In Dublin At the quays friends come and say farewell We'd laugh and joke and smoke And later on the boat I'd cry over you In Dublin How can I leave the town that brings me down That has no jobs Is blessed by God And makes me cry Dublin And at sea with flowing hair I'd think of Dublin Of Grafton Street and Derby Square And those for whom I really care and you In Dublin |
