Fiddlers Green - Sound-A-Like As Made Famous By The Dubliners Various-The Irish Masters

As i walked by the dockside one evening so rare To view the still waters and take the salt air I heard an old fisherman singing this song Oh take me away boys me time is not long Rock me up in me oilskins and ranker No more on the docks i'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates i'm taking a trip mates I'll see you someday in fiddler's green Oh in fiddler's green is a place i've heard tell Where sailormen go if they don't go to hell Where the weather is fair and the dolphins do play And the cold coast of greenland is far far away Rock me up in me oilskins and ranker No more on the docks i'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates i'm taking a trip mates I'll see you someday in fiddler's green Rock me up in me oilskins and ranker No more on the docks i'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates i'm taking a trip mates I'll see you someday in fiddler's green Oh and when you are docked and the long trip is through There's pubs and there's clubs and there's lassies there too Where the girls are all pretty and the beer is all free And there's bottles of rum growing off every tree Rock me up in me oilskins and ranker No more on the docks i'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates i'm taking a trip mates I'll see you someday in fiddler's green Oh i don't want a harp nor a halo not me Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea And i'll play me auld squeezebox as we sail along With the wind in the rigging to sing me this song Rock me up in me oilskins and ranker No more on the docks i'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates i'm taking a trip mates I'll see you someday in fiddler's green
