Paddy Goes To Holyhead - Fiddler on the Rooftop lyrics

When I'm feeling sad and low And don't know what to do I climb the stairs and leave it all behind Far away the world below I rise to play my tune Feeling one of a kind Fiddler on the Rooftop I'm playing my song Right beneath the sunny sky that's where I belong There's one place I can tell you Just listen when I go A simple little melody with all my heart and soul Fiddler on the Rooftop I'm playing my song While walking through the valley From the north down to the south People start to follow me and sing Arriving into town much later Then the word of mouth A grand reception as if I were king Everybody knew my tune They sang it note for note They put their heart and soul in every line I climbed up on the Rooftop And "boy that's all she wrote" Playing your song and mine There's no need to question There's only one direction When you're down and out Fiddler on the Rooftop Rosin' up your bow And raise it up and let it out! Fiddler on the Rooftop I'm playing my song Right beneath the sunny sky that's where I belong Just listen when I go A simple little melody with all my heart and soul Fiddler on the Rooftop I'm playing my song
