The Reason I Left Mullingar
[Verse 1]
I Emwalk through this Dcity a CstrangGer,
in a Fland I can Cnever call GhomDe
I Emcurse the sad Dnotion that Ccaused Gme
in Emsearch of my fortune to Droam.
[Verse 2]
I'm Emweary of Dworking and CdrinkGing,
with a Fweek's wages Cspent in the GbaDr
And EmGod it's a Dshame for to Cuse a friend's Gname
just to Embeg for the price of a Djar
[Chorus]
I Emremember that Dbright CApril Gmorning,
when I Fleft home to Ctravel GafDar
But to Emwork till you're Ddead for one Croom and a Gbed,
is not the Creason I Dleft MullinGgar
[Verse 3]
Oh, this EmLondon's a Dcity of CheartGbreak,
on FFriday there's Cfriends by the GscDore,
but Emwhen the pay's Dfinished on CMondGay,
a Emfriend's not a friend anyDmore
[Verse 4]
Oh, a Emworking day Dseems never CendGing,
from the Fshovel and Cpick there's no GbrDeak
But Emwhen you're not Dworking you're CspenGding,
the Emfortune you left home to Dmake
[Chorus]
I Emremember that Dbright CApril Gmorning,
when I Fleft home to Ctravel GafDar
But to Emwork till you're Ddead for one Croom and a Gbed,
is not the Creason I Dleft MullinGgar
[Verse 5]
And for Emevery one Dhere who finds CforGtune,
and Fcomes home to Ctell of the GtaDle,
each Emmorning the Dbroadway is CcrowGded
with Emmany’s the thousands who Dfail
[Verse 6]
So, Emyoung men of DIreland, take CwarGning,
in FLondon you Cnever will GfiDnd
the Emgold at the Dend of the CrainGbow,
you Emmight just have left it Dbehind
[Chorus]
I Emremember that Dbright CApril Gmorning,
when I Fleft home to Ctravel GafDar
But to Emwork till you're Ddead for one Croom and a Gbed,
is not the Creason I Dleft MullinGgar
it's not thCe reason DI left MullGingar
