Ring a ring a rosie

as the lights declines,

lremember Dublin city

in the rare oul times.
as the lights declines,

I remember Dublin city

in the rare oul times.
in the rare oul times.
Raised on songs and stories,

heroes of renown,

The passing tales and glories,

that once was Dublin town,

The passing tales and glories,

that once was Dublin town,
Ring a ring a rosie as

My name it is Sean Dempsey

as Dublin as could be
Born hard and late in Pimlico

in a house that ceased to be
Born hard and late in Pimlico

in a house that ceased to be
My trade Iwas 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
progress my trade's a memory
And I courted Peggy Dignan,

as pretty as you please,

A rogue and child of Mary,

from the rebel liberties,
A rogue and child of Mary,

from the rebel liberties,
I lost her to a student chap,
with skin as black as coal,
When he took her offto Birmingham,

she took away my soul.

INSTRUMENTAL
The years have made me bitter,
the gargle dims me brain
'Cause Dublin keeps on changing

and nothing seems the same.
As the grey unyielding concrete

makes a city of my 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,
My mind's too full of memories,

to old to hear new chimes,

I'm a part ofwhat was Dublin

in the Rare Oul Times.
