《Irish Rover》歌词

[00:00:00] Irish Rover - The Clancy Brothers with Tommy Makem

[00:00:03] In the year of our lord eighteen-hundred and six

[00:00:07] We set sail from the port quay of cork

[00:00:11] We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks

[00:00:14] For the grand city hall in New York

[00:00:18] We'd an elegant craft she was rigged fore and aft

[00:00:22] And how the trade winds drove her

[00:00:25] She had twenty-three masts and she stood several blasts

[00:00:29] And they called her the Irish Rover

[00:00:33] There was Barney McGee from the banks of the Leith

[00:00:37] There was Hogan from county Tyrone

[00:00:40] There was Johnny McGirk who was scared stiff of work

[00:00:44] And a chap from westmeath named Malone

[00:00:47] We had slugger O'Toole who was drunk as a rule

[00:00:51] And fighting Bill Tracy from dover

[00:00:55] And your man mick McCann from the banks of the Bann

[00:00:58] Was the skipper on the Irish Rover

[00:01:03] We had one million bags of the best sligo rags

[00:01:06] We had two million barrels of bone

[00:01:10] We had three million bales of old nanny goats' tails

[00:01:14] We had four million barrels of stone

[00:01:17] We had five million hogs

[00:01:19] And six million dogs

[00:01:21] Seven million barrels of porter

[00:01:24] We had eight million sides of old blind horses' hides

[00:01:28] In the hold of the Irish Rover

[00:01:32] We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out

[00:01:36] And the ship lost her way in a fog great fog

[00:01:40] And the whale of a crew was reduced down to two

[00:01:43] Twas myself and the captain's old dog dirty dog

[00:01:47] Well the ship struck a rock oh lord what a shock

[00:01:50] And nearly tumbled over

[00:01:54] Turned nine times around and the poor old dog was drowned

[00:02:01] I'm the last of the Irish Rover
