The passing tales and glories

that once was Dublin Town
The hallowed halls and houses,

the haunting childrens rhymes

That once was Dublin city

in the rare ould times
the haunting childrens rhymes

That once was Dublin city

in the rare ould times
Ring a ring a rosey

as the light declines

lremember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
as the light declines

I remember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
Born hard and late in Pimlico,

in a house that ceased to be
By trade I was a cooper,

lost out to redundancy

Like my house that fell to progress,

my trade's a memory
lost out to redundancy

Like my house that fell to progress,

my trade's a memory
And I courted Peggy Dognan,

as pretty as you please

A rogue and a Child of Mary,

from the rebel Liberties
as pretty as you please

A rogue and a Child of Mary,

from the rebel Liberties
A rogue and a Child of Mary,

from the rebel Liberties
When he took her offto Birmingham,

she took away my soul
Ring a ring a rosey

as the light declines

lremember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
as the light declines

I remember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
the gargle dims me brain

Cause Dublin keeps on changing,

and nothing seems the same
Cause Dublin keeps on changing,

and nothing seems the same
As the great unyielding concrete

makes a city of our town
Fare thee well sweet Anna Liffey,
I can no longer stay
And watch the new glass cages

that spring up along the Quay
I can no longer stay

And watch the new glass cages

that spring up along the Quay
And watch the new glass cages

that spring up along the Quay
to old to hear new chimes

I'm part ofwhat was Dublin,

in the rare ould times
I'm part of what was Dublin,

in the rare ould times
Ring a ring a rosey

as the light declines

lremember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
as the light declines

I remember Dublin city

in the rare ould times
Ring a ring a rosey

as the light declines

I remember Dublin city

in the rare.. ould... times .....
