Siobhan - The Limerick Rake lyrics

Artist: Siobhan

album: The Patron Saints of Debauchery


I am a young fellow that's easy and bold
In Castletown corners I'm very well known
In Newcastle West I spent many a note
With Kitty and Judy and Mary
My father rebuked me for being such a rake
And spending my time in such frolicsome ways
But I ne'er could forget the good nature of Jane
Agus fá¡gaimád siáºd mar atá¡ sé.
Now some say I'm foolish and some say I'm wise
But the love of the women, I think 'tis no crime
The son of King David had Ten Thousand wives
And his wisdom was highly regarded
Now there's one from Askeaton and one from the Pike
Another from Arda, my heart was beguiled
She lives on the mountain, her stockings are white
And I'd love to be tightenin' her garters
John Damer of Shronel had plenty of gold,
And Devonshire's treasure is twenty times more,
But he's laid on his back among nettles and stones,
Agus fá¡gaimád siáºd mar atá¡ sé.
And when I am dead and am laid to my rest
My women and children shall appear at my wake
They'll gather around me, to offer a prayer
