ROSIE UP IN MOORE STREET Oh Rosie up in Moore Street, tipplin' neath her shawl, The old ball of malt and the chaser, Oh Rosie she was neat, ah the queen of all the street, Cos Rosie was the dealers' darlin'. Nancy balls and bulls-eyes, licorice sticks and plums, Credit till the (Pond/Palm?) doors open, She'd never see a wrong, trade an apple for a song, Cos Rosie was the dealers' darlin'. Chorus Now Rosie saw the changes from carriages to cars, The times when the street was a haven, A social looking-glass for the toffs and working class, And Rosie was the dealers' darlin'. Chorus Now Dublin never changes and Dublin never cries, And dealin' is a trade worth savin', Ans Rosie was the queen of the whole Dublin scene, Cos Rosie was the dealers' darlin'. Chorus x 2^^

06 Jun 99 - 06:54 AM (#84352) Subject: RE: Lyrics: Rosy Up on Moore Street From: John in Brisbane I thought you'd never ask. Brisbane is the third largest city in terms of population in Australia and is in the sub-tropics. We're in our first week of winter, with a temperature range of 14C - 23C about average at the moment. You'll find a gory reference to Brisbane's past as a convict colony in the DT in the song Moreton Bay, plus a fairly romanticised version later last century in Brisbane Ladies. The famous beaches of the Gold Coast/Surfers Paradise are about 70 km South and the Sunshine Coast about 120 Km North. I love it here!
Regards, John |

Martin- Thanks and I agree w/ "pawn" for sure. John and Martin- What about "tipper" beneath the shawl? (as in whiskey flask) Thanks all. |

But Big Mick gave me a Pete St. John songbook, and it has a few corrections: ROSIE UP IN MOORE STREET (Pete St. John) CHORUS Rosie up in Moore Street, tipplin' neath her shawl, The ould ball of malt and the chaser, Oh Rosie she was neat, ah, the Queen of all the street, For Rosie was the Dealers' Darlin'. Nancy Balls and Bulls-Eyes, Liquorice Sticks and plums, Credit till the pawn doors open, She'd never see you wrong, trade an apple for a song, And Rosie was the Dealers' Darlin'. Rosie saw the changes from carriages to cars, The times when the street was a haven, A social looking-glass for the toffs and working class, And Rosie was the Dealers' Darlin'. Dublin never changes and Dublin never dies, And dealin' is a trade worth savin', Ans Rosie was the Queen of the whole Dublin scene, For Rosie was the Dealers' Darlin'.
