letra de the rare auld times - dubliners
raised on songs & stories, heroes of re-known
the p-ssing tales & glories that once was dublin town
the hallowed halls & houses, the haunting childrens’
rhymes
that once was dublin city in the rare ould times
[chorus:]
ring a ring a rosie, as the light declines
i remember dublin city in the rare ould times
my name it is sean demspey, as dublin as can be
born hard & 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
& i courted peggy dignan, as pretty as you please
a rogue & a child of mary, from the rebel liberties
i lost her to a student chap with a skin as black as
coal
when he took her off to birmingham, she took away my
soul
[chorus]
the years have made me bitter, the gargle dims my brain
’cause dublin keeps on changing & nothing stays the
same
the pillar & the met have gone, the royal long since
pulled down
as the great unyielding concrete makes a city of my
town
[chorus]
fare thee well sweet anna liffey, i can no longer stay
& watch the new gl-ss cages, that spring up along the
quay
my mind’s too full of memories, too old to hear new
chimes
i’m part of what was dublin in the rare ould times
