From: GUEST,Time Ashore

I have the chorus and first verse of a song "Dublin O'Shea".

Chorus
Have another drink boys, Oh have one with me
We're home from the sea and we're back on the shore
and if you get too drunk boys in this company
you'll roll round Cape Horn on the Rory O'More (not sure about this bit)

Verse
He lived on the dockside in Liverpool town
And he always was down on the ?????????????
Everyone knew him as Dublin O'Shea
Some say he came from Killarney

Does anyone know the rest of the song?

Lyrics copied from a German forum:

DUBLIN O'SHEA

CHORUS: Have another drink, boys. Well, have one with me.
We're home from the sea. Yes, we're back on the shore;
And if you get too drunk, boys, in this company,
You'll roar 'round Cape Horn on the Rory O'Mor.

He lived on the dockside near Liverpool town,
And he always went down to the "Thief and the Vagabond."
Everyone knew him as Dublin O'Shea.
Some say he came from Killarney. CHORUS

I sing of an Irishman honest and plain,
But what's in a name when you think of the man himself?
He was a sinner and he drank with the same,
And he mastered the fine art of blarney. CHORUS

He was a lay preacher and a God-fearin' man
With a drink in his hand. What a terrible sinner!
He'd drink with the Devil and spit in his eye,
Then go to confession on Friday. CHORUS

For ramblin' and rovin' there's none to compare.
If you'd met him you'd swear that the man was a saint;
But if you could just see him in some foreign bar,
You'd swear he was the High King of Ireland. CHORUS TWICE
