In the merry month of June from my home I startedLeft the girls of taum nearly brokenhearted saluted meFather dear kissed me darling mother drank a pint of beerMy grief and tears to smother then off to reap the cornLeave where I was born cut a stout blackthorn to banishGhosts and goblin brand-new pair of brogues rattling overThe bogs frightening all the dogs on the rocky road to DublinIn Mullingar last night, I rested limbs so weary started by daylightNext morning bright and early took a drop of the pure to keep meHeart from sinking that's the paddy's cure when he's on the drinkingSee the lassies smile laughing all the while at me darling styleWould set your heart a-bubblin' asked me was I hiredWages I required 'til I was almost tired of the rocky road to DublinHunt the hare and turn her down the rocky roadAnd all the way to Dublin, whack-fol-la-de-daIn Dublin next arrived, I thought it such a pity to beSo soon deprived a view of that fine cityDecided to take a stroll all among the quality bundleIt was stole in that neat locality something crossed my mindWhen I looked behind no bundle could I find upon me stick a-wobblin'Crying for a rogue said me Con naught brogue wasn't much in-vogueOn the rocky road to DublinHunt the hare and turn her down the rocky roadAnd all the way to Dublin, whack-fol-la-de-daFrom there I got away, me spirits never failing landed on the quayJust as the ship was sailing captain at me roaredSaid that no room had he then I jumped aboard a cabinFound for paddy down among the pigsPlayed some funny rigs, danced some hearty jigsThe water 'round me bubblin' off to holly head wished myself was deadOr better far instead on the rocky road to DublinHunt the hare and turn her down the rocky roadAnd all the way to Dublin, whack-fol-la-de-daThe boys in Liverpool, when we safely landed called myself a foolI could no longer stand it blood began to boilTemper I was losing poor old Erin's isle they began abusingHooray me soul says I, let the shillelagh fly some gal wayBoys were nigh saw I was a-hobblin' with a loud arrayThey joined me in the fray and soon we cleared the wayOn the rocky road to DublinHunt the hare and turn her down the rocky roadAnd all the way to Dublin, whack-fol-la-de-daHunt the hare and turn her down the rocky roadAnd all the way to Dublin, whack-fol-la-de-daHey
