03 Nov 97 - 09:01 PM (#15682) Subject: Lyr Add: DUBLIN - TAKE ME From: Harald About a year ago, I came across a song called "Dublin - Take Me" sung by Finbar Furey and Davey Arthur. Very boogie-like. Quite untypical, at least for F.Furey. Does anybody know, if they did more like this ? Or is anyone able to fill the gaps ? I´d be very glad to get the song complete. Here is what I could get from the record:
Dublin - Take Me If you´re going back to Dublin - take me |

24 Nov 97 - 02:45 PM (#16592) Subject: RE: Dublin - Take Me ! From: Harald It´s on a sampler containing lots of Dublin-Songs. The whole is called someting like "Memories of Ireland" or so. The most on it sounds like the title suggests, but Dublin-Take Me doesn´t want to fit into this scheme. Very interesting song. |

On a night like this, there's nowhere else I'd rather be. Just pick me up and carry me across the Irish Sea. If you're goin' back to Dublin, take me. If I can't make it, please take my regards To Sweeny O'Donagh, my good friend down in Rathgar. Keep a clean nose for the customs man and a big smile for the Guards. If I can't make it, please take my regards. CHORUS: Sunny days in the Wicklow Mountains, and music on Merrion Row, Rainy nights in the Gresham Hotel, O Lord, I gotta, I gotta go. I'll meet you under the arch in Trinity around about eight And if it don't rain I'll be waiting outside of the gate. We can go to O'Neill's and talk all night and tomorrow when heaven can wait, I'll meet you under the arch in Trinity around about eight. CHORUS If you're goin' back to Dublin, take me. On a night like this, there's nowhere else I'd rather be. Just pick me up and carry me across the Irish Sea. If you're goin' back to Dublin, take me. CHORUS If you're goin' back to Dublin, I said, if you're goin' back to Dublin, If you're goin' back to Dublin, take me, take me, take me. |
