Raised on songs and stories
Heroes of reknown
The passing tales and glories
That once was Dublin town
The hallowed halls and houses
The haunting children's rhymes
That once was Dublin city
In the rare old times
(Chorus)
Ring a ring a rosie
As the light declines
I remember Dublin City
In the rare old times
My name it is Sean Dempsey
As Dublin as could be
Born hard and late in Pimlico
In a house that's 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 Diagnam
As pretty as you please
A gentle child of Mary
From the rebel liberties
I lost her to a student chap
With 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 gargles dims me brain
'Cause Dublin keeps on changing
And nothing stays the same
The Pillar and the Met have gone
The Royal long since pulled down
As the great and unyielding concrete
Makes a city of my town
(Chorus)
Fare thee well sweet Anna Liffey
I can no longer stay
And watch the new glass cages
That spring up along the quay
My mind's too full of memories
Too old to hear new chimes
I'm a part of what was Dublim
In the rare old times
(Chorus x2)

(Chorus x2)
In the rare old times
I'm a part of what was Dublim
Too old to hear new chimes
My mind's too full of memories
That spring up along the quay
And watch the new glass cages
I can no longer stay
Fare thee well sweet Anna Liffey
(Chorus)
Makes a city of my town
As the great and unyielding concrete
The Royal long since pulled down
The Pillar and the Met have gone
And nothing stays the same
'Cause Dublin keeps on changing
The gargles dims me brain
The years have made me bitter
(Chorus)
She took away my soul
When he took her off to Birmingham
With skin as black as coal
I lost her to a student chap
From the rebel liberties
A gentle child of Mary
As pretty as you please

My trade's a memory
Like my house that fell to progress
Lost out to redundancy
By trade I was a cooper
In a house that's ceased to be
Born hard and late in Pimlico

In the rare old times

Ring a ring a rosie

In the rare old times
That once was Dublin city
The haunting children's rhymes
The hallowed halls and houses
That once was Dublin town
The passing tales and glories
Heroes of reknown
