Christy Moore - The Cliffs Of Dooneen lyrics

You may travel far far from your own native home Far away o'er the mountains far away o'er the foam But of all the fine places that I've ever seen, Three's none to compare with The Cliffs of Dooneen Take a view o'er the water fine sights you'll see there You'll see the high rocky slopes on the West coast of Clare The towns of Kilrush and Kilkee can be seen From the high rocky slopes at The Cliffs of Dooneen It's a nice place to be on a fine summer's day Watching all the wild flowers that ne'er do decay The hare and lofty pheasant are plain to be seen Making homes for their young round The Cliffs of Dooneen Fare thee well to Dooneen fare thee well for a while And to all the fine people I'm leaving behind To the streams and the meadows where late I have been And the high rocky slopes of The Cliffs of Dooneen
