Oh, Dublin you're my city
 I'm proud to call you mine
 Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
 No matter who I love and woo at home or over sea
 My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
 Dublin men and women are the salt of all the earth
 Fiercely true and loyal to the town that gave them birth
 A Dublin man spends all his life making friends
 With black porter each evening at eight
 When they sound his death knell his last prayer is to dwell
 By Saint James' pearly gate
 Oh, Dublin you're my city
 I'm proud to call you mine
 Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
 No matter who I love and woo at home or over sea
 My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
 Dublin is to Dubliners a dear ould dirty town
 It's getting dearer every year and hard to earn a pound
 And as for the Liffey that gash through the city
 It's thicker than treacle or chalk
 It will soon be so grim that instead of a swim
 They'll be holding the Liffey walk
 Thugs and drugs and muggings are the order of the day
 The headlines yell: "We've gone to hell it's time crime didn't pay"
 The gangs and the police meet nightly on Foley Street
 Bleeding their way through the news
 It's become quite a scene the new show on our screen
 Will be Sean McDermott Street blues
 Oh, Dublin you're my city
 I'm proud to call you mine
 Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
 No matter who I love and woo at home or over sea
 My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
 Even though we've troubles we can always find a smile
 A 'Dub' will wear a certain air I think you'd call it style
 Those Guinness streaked faces from the Phoenix Park races
 Cheer up the grey streets with their jibes
 Though most landmarks are gone, the rich pagent lives on
 And Molly Malone still survives
 So, Dublin you're my city
 I'm proud to call you mine
 Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
 No matter who I love and woo at home or over sea
 My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
 Oh, Dublin you're my city
 I'm proud to call you mine
 Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
 No matter who I love and woo at home or over sea
 My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
