tis of my rambles - the irish rovers lyrics
[verse 1]
well since i was just a lad i’ve had the rovin’ on me mind
at sixteen years i bid adieu and wandered far away
from ballymena town i left ould ireland far behind
but i knew that i’d return again some day
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
[verse 2]
so i tramped the british isles then i sailed across the sea
i wondered what me fate would be in north americay
we landed in quebec where they fly the fleur*de*lis
and from there i rambled down through boston way
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
[verse 3]
well in frisco next arrived where i fell in love one day
and i swore i’d take her home and show her round the emerald isle
but the children came along and the time it slipped away
though i dreamt of dear ould ireland all the while
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
[verse 4]
and now i’m old and grey and me rovin’ days are done
returning to ould ireland’s just a dream across the foam
but me thoughts are still me own and i know where i begun
and fondly do i think back on me home
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
[chorus]
and i wonder are the green fields still as green as they can be
and i wonder if the singing birds are singing in the trees
and is the air as sweet from the smell of burning peat
and will anyone remember me
