Gaelic Storm

Oh the little boats have gone,
from the breast of Anna Liffey,
and the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai,
The Dublin docks are dying,
and a way of life is gone
Its over Molly, over cant you see
Where the strawberry beds,
sweep down to the Liffey,
youll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
and Ill love you more tomorrow,
if you ever love me
Molly, love me now!
Now the only job I had,
it was hard, but never lonely.
The river ferry made a man of me.
And its gone without a whisper,
and forgotten even now.
And Molly it was part of you and me!
Where the strawberry beds,
sweep down to the Liffey,
youll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
and Ill love you more tomorrow,
if you ever love me
Molly, love me now!
And now my work is over,
and Ill spend my days in rovin.
Ill hear them whisper, "Charlies on the dole..."
But Molly were still livin,
and darlin were still young,
and the river never ruled my heart or soul!
Where the strawberry beds,
sweep down to the Liffey,
youll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
and Ill love you more tomorrow,
if you ever love me
Molly, love me now!
Where the strawberry beds,
sweep down to the Liffey,
youll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
and Ill love you more tomorrow,
if you ever love me
Molly, love me now!
Oh the little boats have gone,
from the breast of Anna Liffey,
and the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai,
The Dublin docks are dying,
and a way of life is gone
Its over Molly, over cant you see
Its over Molly, over cant you see
Its over
Molly, its over
Molly, cant you see
Molly, its over, Molly
Cant you see
