| [00:00.477] |
All you young men I pray draw near now. |
| [00:05.542] |
Give an ear to the words I am goin' to say. |
| [00:09.414] |
I'm goin' to tell you that the people of Ireland are emigratin' to Americay. |
| [00:17.590] |
Yes indeed, they are emigratin'. |
| [00:22.342] |
This poor country they can't stand. |
| [00:25.628] |
Put their foot on board of a ship and they're sailing off to the Yankee land. |
| [00:33.709] |
The night before they were due for leaving. |
| [00:37.973] |
All the neighbours in their house do throng. |
| [00:41.537] |
For to take their farewell glass and otherwise to sing a song. |
| [00:49.085] |
They danced all night till early morning. |
| [00:53.919] |
Each man cutting all around the floor. |
| [00:57.509] |
Mother she comes in, says, weeping, "See our children to the door." |
| [01:05.419] |
Hurrah for the gallant sons of Erin! |
| [01:09.981] |
This poor country they can't stand. |
| [01:13.597] |
Put their foot on board of a ship while they're sailin' off to the Yankee land. |
| [01:21.387] |
Father he looks around the cabin. |
| [01:26.076] |
He sees that he is all alone. |
| [01:29.811] |
Surely his poor heart is breaking. |
| [01:32.583] |
His salt tears would melt the stone. |
| [01:37.981] |
The other day as I went to walking. |
| [01:42.389] |
Down the road I chanced to go. |
| [01:46.062] |
I saw a crowd to me approaching it surely filled my heart with woe. |
| [01:54.054] |
I saw the carriages and coaches moving onward forward to the train. |
| [02:02.540] |
And their handkerchiefs were waving bidding goodbye to Granuaile |
| [02:10.249] |
Hurrah for the gallant sons of Erin! |
| [02:14.390] |
This poor country they can't stand. |
| [02:17.900] |
Put their foot on board of a ship while they're sailin' off to the Yankee land. |
| [02:56.438] |
When they get to New York harbour. |
| [03:00.892] |
Friends will meet them with good cheer. |
| [03:04.491] |
"How is old Ireland and how is she doin' and how is she comin' on this year?" |
| [03:11.249] |
Ohh she's the most distressed and cursed nation. |
| [03:16.341] |
In this world that e'er was seen. |
| [03:19.824] |
All they're good for is process-servin' in this little isle of green. |
| [03:27.653] |
Hurrah for the gallant sons of Erin! |
| [03:31.679] |
This poor country they can't stand. |
| [03:37.281] |
Put their foot on board of a ship while they're sailin' off to the Yankee land. |
| [03:42.997] |
Hurrah for the gallant sons of Erin! |
| [03:46.972] |
This poor country they can't stand. |
| [03:50.752] |
Put their foot on board of a ship while they're sailin' off to the Yankee land. |
