[00:00.09]Well, I've not been honest, darlin',
[00:05.97]No, I've not been straight at all.
[00:09.21]Well, I beg your pardon;
[00:12.72]The night we jumped McCormack's Wall
[00:16.06]I was so happy just to be with you
[00:19.66]I would have said anything at all.
[00:23.48]Now I could scream your name
[00:25.08]Till you do the same,
[00:27.15]But I know you won't respond
[00:32.16]Well, here we are.
[00:35.43]What's there to do?
[00:38.57]La din da...
[00:49.48]I'm gonna ride black river
[00:56.79]With the lark in the morning
[01:02.54]And the dew upon the dawn,
[01:05.53]Well, a-home we came a-crawling
[01:08.95]With our sickness and our song
[01:12.22]For all guitar makers;
[01:15.18]For the prisoners and the law;
[01:18.55]And to the fine wine drinkers
[01:22.14]Who drank their bellies raw;
[01:25.25]And to all the good samaritans,
[01:28.25]Whoever found us in the dark;
[01:32.04]And to all who've been
[01:34.10]Or come between
[01:35.59]The lovers in the park;
[01:38.63]And to all the ó Díomasaigh singers
[01:41.57]With their roots in holy ground.
[01:45.40]And forgiveness still lingers
[01:47.40]In the bells above the town.
[01:53.71]Well, here we are.
[01:57.03]What's there to do?
[02:00.20]La din la...
[02:10.96]I'm gonna ride on black river
[02:32.47]Well, this is a song of drinking,
[02:38.04]And for a drink it will be sung,
[02:41.61]And I'll sing it right, and I'll say goodnight.
[02:49.07]Unless they're serving another one
