[intro]
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re-
oh, hey! hey! hey!

in the year of our lord, eighteen hundred and six
we set sail from the [?] of cork
we were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
for the grand city hall of new york
we’d an elegant craft, she was rigged forе-and-aft
and oh, how the wild winds drove her
shе had twenty-seven masts and withstood several blasts
and they called her the irish rover

there was barney mcgee from the banks of the lee
there was hogan from county tyrone
there was charlie mcgurk who was scared stiff of work
and a chap from westmeath called malone
there was slugger o’toole who was drunk as a mule
and fighting bill tracey from dover
and your man mick mccann from the banks of the bann
was the skipper of the irish rover

we had five million bags of the best sligo rags
we had six million barrels of stones
we had seven million bales of old nanny goats’ tails
we had eight million barrels of bones
we had nine million hogs, had ten million dogs
eleven million barrels of porter
we had eight million sides of old blind horses’ hides
in the hold of the irish rover
[bridge]
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re rovin’, rovin’
rovin’ out, we’re rovin’ out, we’re-
oh, hey!

we had sailed seven years when the measles broke out
and the ship lost its way in a fog
and the whole of the crew was reduced down to two
just meself and the captain’s old dog (ruff, ruff!)
then the ship struck a rock, oh lord what a shock
the boat, she turned right over!
she turned nine times around, and the poor old dog was drowned

[spoken]
now, kids, i’m sure that didn’t actually happen. the dog was just, uh… sleeping! yeah… in the… water…

[spoken]
wait, what?!

i’m the last of the irish rover!
hey! hey! hey!
