I was born in Liverpool, down by the docks,

My religion was Catholic; occupation - hard knocks.

At stealing from lorries, I was adept,

And underneath overcoats each night I slept.

 

Over at Anfield the shirts they are red.

And the players play football as though they were dead.

While over at Goodison the shirts they are blue,

and the football they play is fantastic to view.

And that whale of a crew

Was reduced down to two

Just myself and the Captain's old dog

Then the ship struck a rock

Oh Lord! what a shock

The bulkhead was turned right over

Turned nine times around

And the poor old dog was drowned

I'm the last of The Irish Rover

...And we'll all go together

To pluck wild mountain thyme

All around the blooming heather

Will ye go, Lassie go?

One more to come, and it is a beaut!

Trying to remember the story Christie Moore tells on his live album about drinking with Shane McGowan 'he ordered some drinks, and I ordered some drinks, and then we sat down and we had a drink, and he read me some of his poetry and Jeezus it was terrible....
