Dublin City Ramblers - The ferryman lyrics

All the little boats are gone From the breast of Anna Liffey And the ferrymen are stranded on the quay The Dublin docks are dying And a way of life is gone And Molly it was part of you and me Where the strawberry beds Sweep down to the Liffey You´ll kiss away the worries from my brow I love you well today And I´ll love you more tomorrow If you ever loved me Molly love me now ´Twas the only job I knew It was hard but never lonely The Liffey Ferry made a man of me Now it´s gone without a whisper Forgotten even now Sure it´s over Molly over can´t you see Well now I spin my yarns And spend my days in talking I hear them whisper Charley´s on the dole But Molly we´re still living And Darling we´re still young And the river never ruled my heart or soul
