《The Settlers》歌词

[00:00:00] The Settlers - the Shamrock (ザ・シャムロック)

[00:00:06] On the fourth of july 1806

[00:00:09] We set sail from the sweet cove of cork

[00:00:13] We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks

[00:00:16] For the grand city hall in new york

[00:00:20] T'was a wonderful craft she was rigged fore and aft

[00:00:23] And oh how the wild wind drove her

[00:00:26] She stood several blasts she had twenty-seven masts

[00:00:29] And they called her the irish rover

[00:00:33] We had one million bags of the best sligo rags

[00:00:36] We had two million barrels of stone

[00:00:40] We had three million sides of old blind horses' hides

[00:00:43] We had four million barrels of bone

[00:00:46] We had five million hogs six million dogs

[00:00:50] Seven million barrels of porter

[00:00:53] We had eight million bails of old nanny gold tails

[00:00:57] In the hold of the irish rover

[00:01:00] There was old mickey coote who played hard on his flute

[00:01:03] When the ladies lined up for a set

[00:01:07] He was tootin' with skill for each sparking quadrille

[00:01:10] Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet

[00:01:13] With his smart witty talk he was cock of the walk

[00:01:17] And he rolled the dames under and over

[00:01:20] They all knew at a glance when he took up his stance

[00:01:24] That he sailed on the irish rover

[00:01:41] There was barney mcgee from the banks of the lee

[00:01:44] There was hogan from county tyrone

[00:01:47] There was johnny mcgurk who was scared stiff of work

[00:01:51] And your man from the west meath called malone

[00:01:54] There was slugger o'toole who was drunk as a rule

[00:01:58] And fighting bill tracey from dover

[00:02:01] And your man mick mccann from the banks of the bann

[00:02:04] Was the skipper of the irish rover

[00:02:21] We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out

[00:02:25] And the ship lost it's way in the fog

[00:02:28] And that whale of a crew was reduced down to two

[00:02:31] Just myself and the captain's old dog

[00:02:35] Then the ship struck a rock oh lord what a shock

[00:02:39] The bulkhead was turned right over

[00:02:42] Turned nine times around and the poor old dog was drowned

[00:02:45] And the last of the irish rover
