Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am a ramblin\u2019 Irishman
\nIt\u2019s Ulster I was born in
\nAnd manys the happy hour I spent
\nOn the banks of sweet Loch Erin
\nAh but to live poor I could not endure
\nLike others of my station
\nTo America I sailed away
\nAnd left this Irish nation<\/p>\n

Rie tan tah na nah tan tan na nah
\nrie tan tan a noo tan a tan deh<\/p>\n

The night before I went away
\nI spent it with my darlin
\nFrom 2 o\u2019clock in the afternoon
\nTil the break of day next morning
\nAnd when that we were going for to part
\nWe linked in each other\u2019s arm
\nAnd you may be sure, ah and very very sure
\nIt\u2019s wounded both her charms<\/p>\n

Rie\u2026.<\/p>\n

The very first night I spent on board
\nI dreamt about my Nancy
\nI dreamt I held her in my arms
\nAnd it\u2019s well she pleased my fancy
\nAh, but in the morning when I awoke
\nAnd I found my bosom empty
\nAh you may be sure, and very very sure
\nThat I lay discontented<\/p>\n

Rie\u2026.<\/p>\n

Ah but when we reached the other side
\nWe both stout and healthy
\nWe dropped our anchor in the bay
\nGoing down to Philadelphie
\nLet every lass link with her lad
\nBlue jacket and white trousers
\nLet every lad link with his lass
\nBlue petticoat and white blousers<\/p>\n
