Christy Moore - Rambling Robin lyrics

When first from boyhood I came to a man To ramble the nation through soon I began Oh the ramblin' thought that came into me mind So they christened me Ramblin' Robin oh, So they christened me Ramblin' Robin. O'er hills and o'er mountains I used to go I slept in the woods where there's frost and there's snow No anxiety ever came into me mind So contented was Ramblin' Robin oh So contented was Ramblin' Robin The wind and the rain oh they blew mw quite cold Me parents at home they were both growing old Oh me father did weep and me mother did cry For the loss of their Ramblin' Robin oh For the loss of their Ramblin' Robin When sixteen long years they were over and past Me poor mother's sorrow was ended at last And me father the nation did range through and through Oh in search for his Ramblin' Robin oh Oh in search for his Ramblin' Robin When all me past follies they came to an end To me own little village I did attend Oh the neighbours they told me my parents were dead Filled with grief for their Ramblin' Robin oh Filled with grief for their Ramblin' Robin Oh where shall I wander and where shall I go? Me heart it is filled with sorrow and woe Oh the nation I'll wander through and through And an end put to Ramblin' Robin oh And an end put to Ramblin' Robin.
