now
T’was the only job I knew, it was hard but never lonely
The Liffey ferry made a man of me
And it’s gone without a whisper and forgotten even now
And sure it’s over Molly over can’t you see
Well now I’ll tend the yard and I’ll spend me days in talking
And I’ll hear them whisper Charlie’s on the dole
But Molly we’re still living and darling we’re still young
And that river never owned me heart and soul
