| printable copy of the lyrics to THE ROCKY ROAD TO DUBLIN | |
| In the merry month of June, from me home I started
Left the girls of Tuam, really broken hearted Saluted father dear, kissed me darling mother Drank a pint of beer, me grief and tears to smother Then off to reap the corn, leave where I was born Cut a stout blackthorn to banish ghosts and goblins A brand new pair of brogues, rattlin' o'er the bogs And frightening all the dogs on the Rocky road to Dublin |

Chorus:
One-two-three-four-five Hunt the hare nd turn her down the rocky road And all the way to Dublin Whack fol-lol-dee ra |

In Mullingar that night, I rested limbs so weary
Started by daylight next morning blithe and early Took a drop of the "pure" to keep me heart from sinking That's the paddy's cure whenever he's on for drinking To see the lassies smile, laughing all the while At me curious style 'twould set your heart a-bubbling Asked me was I hired, wages I required Till I was nearly 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 So then I took a stroll all among the quality Me bundle it was stole all in a neat locality Something crossed me mind, when I looked behind No bundle could I find upon my stick a-wobbling Enquiring for the rogue, they said me Connaught brogue Wasn't much in vogue on the rocky road to Dublin |

From there I got away, me spirits never failing
Landed on the quay just as the ship was sailing The captain at me roared, said that no room had he When I jumped aboard ,a cabin found for Paddy Down among the pigs, played some funny rigs Danced some hearty jigs, the water round me bubbling When off Holyhead, wished meself was dead Or better for instead on the rocky road to Dublin |

Well, the boys of Liverpool, when we safely landed
Called meself a fool, I could no longer stand it Blood began to boil, temper I was losing Poor old Erin's Isle, they began abusing "Hurrah me soul," says I, my shillelagh I let fly Some Galway boys were nigh and saw I was a hobble in With a loud "hurray" joined in the affray We quickly cleared the way for the rocky road to Dublin |
