Chorus: | |
Can anybody tell me where the Blarney Roses grow? | |
It might be down in Limerick town, it might be in Mayo | |
It's somewhere in the Emerald Isle and this I want to know | |
Can anybody tell me where the Blarney Roses grow? | |
T' was over in old Ireland, near the town of Cushendall | |
One morn' I met a damsel there, the fairest of them all | |
T' was with my young affections and my money she did go | |
She told me she belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow | |
[Chorus] | |
Her cheeks were like red roses and her hair a raven hue | |
Before that she bad done with me, she had me raving too | |
She sorely left me stranded, not a coin she left, you know | |
Did the damsel that belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow | |
[Chorus] | |
There's roses in Killarney and there's some in County Clare | |
But upon my word, the roses, lads, I can't find anywhere | |
She blarneyed me for by the power, she left me broke, you know | |
Did the damsel that belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow | |
[Chorus] | |
A-chusla gràdh mo cridhe young man, she murmered soft to me | |
If you belong to Ireland, it's yourself belongs to me | |
Her Donegal come-all-ye-brogue, it captured me you know | |
Bad luck to her and bugger the place where the Blarney Roses grow | |
[Chorus] [Chorus] [Chorus] |
