Song | Doolin |
Artist | Paddy Goes to Holyhead |
Album | Hooray |
Halfpints of Smithwick′s and boys from Dungannon | |
Stones from the Burren and wise men of Aran | |
Typical chimneys and chairs for the pipers | |
A glen of a broken heart | |
A red-haired tinker and a one-legged teacher | |
Singing songs of Pete John for a musical preacher | |
9 Germans beating their pour brandnew bodhráns | |
No chance for a Gaelic harp | |
[chorus:] | |
The grasses still grow and the waters flow | |
And the winds of the west they do roar | |
The wild whippin′ rain and the ragin′ main | |
Are knockin′ on Éireann′s green shore | |
The cry of the seagulls rang over the cliffs | |
There′s magic and peace in the air | |
Take me away to Doolin Bay | |
To the pride of the sweet County Clare | |
Cheap Fish and Chips in the night near an old bridge | |
Reels on a friday and days without slip-jigs | |
There are 4 who share the room in the "Rainbow" | |
Time is not ticking away | |
Beautiful sights down the high Cliffs Of Moher | |
Green grow the rashes and black is the color | |
Small-talking barkeepers shouting out loud: | |
"Weather will improve day by day!" | |
[chorus] | |
Time is up at half past eleven, | |
8 P. for the bus from hell to heaven | |
It′s 10 years ago I made up my way, | |
so - please take me back to the bay | |
where | |
