[00:00:00] Dublin Town - Damien Dempsey

[00:00:09] Written by：Damien Dempsey

[00:00:18] Rollin' down to Dublin Town

[00:00:22] Comin' from the Northside headin' Southbound

[00:00:26] The glare of the city you can see it in the sky

[00:00:30] See it in the faces when I'm passing them by

[00:00:35] Dublin Town bright lights all around

[00:00:39] All the different sounds concrete surrounds

[00:00:43] You need a few pounds or there's nothing to do

[00:00:47] No muns no fun in the foggy dew

[00:00:51] I be signing on off Gardiner street

[00:00:56] See all the people struggling just to make ends meet

[00:00:59] The more unfortunate ones be begging at your feet

[00:01:04] We'll have to send a warning to the socially elite

[00:01:08] And I repeat if you keep a people down

[00:01:11] In any old town or country they'll rise don't you see

[00:01:16] It's the will to survive that keeps them alive

[00:01:21] And they're starting to see through all the lies

[00:01:23] That they've contrived so I say to you all

[00:01:27] To educate yourself become well read

[00:01:31] And start to use the head contemplate your own situation

[00:01:37] Find the true enemy and stop banging heads

[00:01:41] With the victims of its greed

[00:01:43] Am I getting too serious

[00:01:46] Well this was meant to be a love song

[00:01:48] Well it is a love song because I love my people

[00:01:59] Rollin' down to Dublin Town

[00:02:03] Comin' from the Northside headin' Southbound

[00:02:07] The glare of the city you can see it in the sky

[00:02:11] See it in the faces when I'm passing them by

[00:02:16] Rollin' down to Dublin Town

[00:02:20] Comin' from the Northside headin' Southbound

[00:02:24] The glare of the city you can see it in the sky

[00:02:28] See it in the faces when I'm passing them by

[00:02:33] Not so long ago back in the good old days

[00:02:37] I dreamed of Irish laws and Irish ways

[00:02:39] And saw that the present days weren't so good

[00:02:44] And the only thing I could think about them that was good

[00:02:48] Was most of the people that surrounded me

[00:02:51] But still I call them good old days because of the craic

[00:02:54] That we had

[00:02:55] We refused to stay sad

[00:02:58] If you have your own around you and also possess your health

[00:03:02] At the end of the day you'll discover that that is the most

[00:03:04] Essential wealth I throw my mind back

[00:03:08] And recall the days I used to have the craic

[00:03:11] Back in Dublin town

[00:03:13] Getting down to the Irish and Jamaican sounds

[00:03:17] Listenin' and learning about life

[00:03:21] Helping me make it through the strife

[00:03:23] Suckin' on a big fat spliff full of rocky flagon in my hand

[00:03:29] Be makin' me feel grand

[00:03:31] Discussing this and that and thinking about the now

[00:03:35] Thinking about the future making myself a vow

[00:03:40] I wasn't going to waste my life

[00:03:42] But I was going to live and love do the best that I could

[00:03:47] I was going to bring some music to the people

[00:03:50] And tell them that they were equal

[00:03:52] But some of them wouldn't listen

[00:03:54] And this is what is pissin' the rest of us off

[00:03:58] You would wanna start listening to us you would

[00:04:00] 'Cause to you we aren't going to be good forever

[00:04:05] Yeah maybe even here in the Dublin Town

[00:04:10] Things could get turned upside down

[00:04:18] Rollin' down to Dublin Town

[00:04:22] Comin' from the Northside headin' Southbound

[00:04:26] The glare of the city you can see it in the sky

[00:04:30] See it in the faces when I'm passing them by

[00:04:35] Rollin' down to Dublin Town

[00:04:39] Comin' from the Northside headin' Southbound

[00:04:43] The glare of the city you can see it in the sky

[00:04:47] See it in the faces when I'm passing them by
