    brought tears. My gran was named Shanahan. Her parents moved from Limerick to take a job in West Virginia at the turn of the 20th century. I hadn't thought about this song in decades(I'm 40 now) and I was throwing a St. Paddy's party and was looking for new Irish music and came across this, and it just brought back a memory of my gran singing this in the kitchen, wearing her nightgown and putting away dishes. I must've been 10 and I remember asking her if she was speaking English and she winked and said "kinda pumpkin". Thanks. She would've loved to watch this.

    Lyrics:
    While In the merry month of May n'o, From my home I started,
    Left the girls of Chum, I ' Nearly broken hearted,
    Saluted father dear, Kissed my darlin' mother,
    Drank a pint of beer-My grief and tears to smotherTHENOFF
    to reap THE CORN, nleave for I WAS BORN,
    cut a stout blackthorn, To banish ghost and goblin,
    brand new PAIR of brogues, to rattled OVER THE BOGS,
    n'Frightened all the DOOGS,On the rocky road to Dublin. One, two, three, four five,
    Hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road And all the ways to Dublin, Maic-fol-loli-ra.
    In Mullingar that night, I rested limbs so weary,
    Started by daylight, Next mornin' light and airy,
    Took a drop of the pure, To keep my heart from sinkin',
    That's a Paddy's cure, Whene'er he's on for drinking.
    To see the lasses smile, Laughing all the while,
    At my curious style, 'Twould set your heart a-bubblin'.
    They ax'd if I was hired, The wages I required,
    Till I was almost tired, Of the rocky road to Dublin.One, two, three, four five, Hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road And all the ways to Dublin, Whack-fol-lol-de-ra.
    In Dublin next arrived, I thought it such a pity,
    To be so soon deprived, A view of that fine city.
    Then I took a stroll, All among the quality,
    My bundle it was stole, In a neat locality;
    Something crossed my mind, Then I looked behind;
    No bundle could I find, Upon my stick a wobblin'.
    Enquirin' for the rogue, They said my Connacht brogue,
    Wasn't much in vogue, On the rocky road to Dublin.One, two, three, four five, Hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road And all the ways to Dublin, Whack-fol-lol-de-ra.
    From there I got away, My spirits never failin'
    Landed on the quay As the ship was sailin';
    Captain at me roared, Said that no room had he,
    When I jumped aboard, A cabin found for Paddy,
    Down among the pigs I played some hearty rigs,
    Danced some hearty jigs, The water round me bubblin',
    When off Holyhead, I wished myself was dead,
    Or better far instead, On the rocky road to Dublin.One, two, three, four five, Hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road And all the ways to Dublin, Whack-fol-lol-de-ra.
    The boys of Liverpool, When we safely landed,
    Called myself a fool; I could no longer stand it;
    Blood began to boil, Temper I was losin',
    Poor ould Erin's isle They began abusin',
    "Hurrah my soul," sez I, My shillelagh I let fly;
    Some Galway boys were by, Saw I was a hobble in,
    Then with a loud hurray, They joined in the affray.
    We quickly cleared the way, For the rocky road to Dublin. One, two, three, four five, Hunt the hare and turn her Down the rocky road And all the ways to Dublin, Whack-fol-lol-de-ra.

    While in the merry month of May, now from me home I started
    Left, the girls of Tuam were nearly broken-hearted
    Saluted father dear, kissed me darling mother
    Drank a pint of beer, me grief and tears to smother
    Then off to reap the corn and leave where I was born
    Cut a stout, black thorn to banish ghosts and goblins
    A brand-new pair of brogues to rattle over the bogs
    And frighten all the dogs on the rocky road to Dublin
    A-one, two, three, four, five
    Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road
    And all the ways to Dublin, whack, follol de-dah
    In Mullingar that night I rested limbs so weary
    Started by daylight next morning blithe and early
    Took a drop of pure to keep me heart from shrinking
    Thats the Paddy's cure when'er he's on for drinking
    To hear the lassies smile, laughing all the while
    At me curious style, 'twould set your heart a-bubblin'
    They asked me was I hired and wages I required to lay
    Was almost tired of the rocky road to Dublin
    One, two, three, four, five
    Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road
    And all the ways to Dublin, whack, follol de-dah
    In Dublin next arrived, I thought it such a pity
    To be so soon deprived a view of that fine city
    So then I took a stroll, all among the quality
    Bundle it was stolen, in a neat locality
    Something crossed me mind, when I looked behind
    No bundle could I find upon me stick a-wobblin'
    'Quiring after the rogue, said me Connaught brogue
    It wasn't much in vogue on the rocky road to Dublin
    One, two, three four, five
    Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road
    And all the ways to Dublin, whack, follol de-dah
    From there I got away, me spirits never falling
    Landed on the quay, just as the ship was sailing
    Captain at me roared, said that no room had he
    When I jumped aboard, a cabin found for Paddy
    Down among the pigs, did some hearty rigs
    I played some hearty jigs, the water round me bubbling
    When off Holyhead I wished meself was dead
    Or better for instead on the rocky road to Dublin
    One, two, three four, five
    Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road
    And all the ways to Dublin, whack, follol de-dah
    The boys of Liverpool, when we safely landed
    Called meself a fool, I could no longer stand it
    Blood began to boil, temper I was losing
    Poor old Erin's Isle they began abusing
    "Hurrah me soul" says I, me Shillelagh I let fly
    Galway boys were by and saw I was a hobblin'
    With a "lo!" and "hurray!" they joined in the affray
    Quickly cleared the way for the rocky road to Dublin
    One, two, three four, five
    Hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road
    And all the ways to Dublin, whack, follol de-dah
