Fiddlers Green - Blarney Roses lyrics
rate meCan anybody tell me where the Blarney Roses grow<br />
It might be down in Limerick town, it might be in Mayo<br />
It's somewhere in the Emerald Isle and this I want to know<br />
Can anybody tell me where the Blarney Roses grow<br />
T' was over in old Ireland, near the town of Cushendall<br />
One morn' I met a damsel there, the fairest of them all<br />
T' was with my young affections and my money she did go<br />
She told me she belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow<br />
Her cheeks were like red roses and her hair a raven hue<br />
Before that she bad done with me, she had me raving too<br />
She sorely left me stranded, not a coin she left, you know<br />
Did the damsel that belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow<br />
There's roses in Killarney and there's some in County Clare<br />
But upon my word, the roses, lads, I can't find anywhere<br />
She blarneyed me for by the power, she left me broke, you know<br />
Did the damsel that belonged to where the Blarney Roses grow<br />
A-chusla gra mo chroi young man, she murmered soft to me<br />
If you belong to Ireland, it's yourself belongs to me<br />
Her Donegal come-all-ye-brogue, it captured me you know<br />
Bad luck to her and bugger the place where the Blarney Roses grow
