Flogging Molly - The Rare Ould Times слова песни
Raised on songs and stories, heroes of renownThe passing tales and glories that once was Dublin TownThe hallowed halls and houses, the haunting childrens rhymesThat once was Dublin City in the rare ould timesRing a ring a rosey, as the light declinesI remember Dublin City in the rare ould timesMy name it is Sean Dempsey, as Dublin as can beBorn hard and late in Pimlico, in a house that ceased to beBy trade I was a cooper, lost out to redundancyLike my house that fell to progress, my trade`s a memoryAnd I courted Peggy Dignam, as pretty as you pleaseA rogue and child of Mary, from the rebel LibertiesI lost her to a student chap, with skin as black as coalWhen he took her off to Birmingham, she took away my soulRing a ring a rosey, as the light declinesI remember Dublin City in the rare ould timesThe years have made me bitter, the gargle dims me brainCause Dublin keeps on changing, and nothing seems the sameThe Pillar and the Met have gone, the Royal long since pulled downAs the grey unyielding concrete, makes a city of my townRing a ring a rosey, as the light declinesI remember Dublin City in the rare ould timesFare thee well sweet Anna Liffey, I can no longer stayAnd watch the new glass cages, that spring up along the quayMy mind`s too full of memories, too old to hear new chimesI`m part of what was Dublin, in the rare ould timesRing a ring a rosey, as the light declinesI remember Dublin City in the rare ould timesRing a ring a rosey, as the light declinesI remember Dublin City in the rare ould times
