Lyrics
I lived on the dockside
Near Liverpool Town,
And he carried her down
To the thieves and the vagabonds,
Ev’ryone knew him as Dublin O’Shea
But some say he came from Killarney,
But he wouldn’t contribute to Blarney.

I sing of an Irishman,
Honest and plain,
And what’s in a name?
When you know of the man himself,
He was a sailor, and he drank with the same,
But he wouldn’t contribute to Blarney!
But he wouldn’t contribute to Blarney!

CHORUS
Have another drink, boys,
Have one with me!
We’re all home from the sea,
Yes, you’re back on the shore
And if you find your feet, boys,
In this company,
You’ll be rollin’ around
On the Rory O’More.

He was a lay preacher,
An’ a God-fearin’ man,
But with a glass in his hand,
What a terrible sinner,
He‘d drink to the devil
And spit in his eye,
And go to confession
On Friday.

Instrumental

CHORUS (2)
