Oftentimes, folk songs have more than one title. The only one I can think of that's close to "Strawberry Rows" is THE STRAWBERRY ROAN (click here) -Joe Offer- |

A friend who often comes out to see me perform asked me if I could get it for him. I know it's not Strawberry Roan, because I already gave that one to him, thinking that might be it. That's why I thought I'd try the discussion group. I think that it's an old Irish folk song. Thanks John |

29 Sep 98 - 02:26 AM (#39843) Subject: Lyr Add: THE FERRYMAN (Pete St John) From: Connor THE FERRYMAN Oh the little boats are gone from the crest of Anna Liffey And the ferrymen are standing on the quay Ah the Dublin docks are dying and our way of life is gone Oh Molly it was hard fae you and me CHORUS: Where the strawberry belts sweep doun tae the Liffy It kissed away the worries from my brow I love ye well today. I'll love ye more tomorrow. If you've ever loved me Molly love me now. 'Twas the only job I knew, it was hard but never lonely Oh the Liffey ferry made a man of me It's gone without a whisper forgotten even now It's over Molly over can't ye see? CHORUS So now I tend me yard I spend me days in talking I hear them whisper "Charlie's on the dole" But Molly we're still living, and darlin' we're still young And the river never owned me heart and soul. Chorus: repeat and fade. I dinnae ken if ye were still after these lyrics or nae. Cheerio, Connor |
