LyricsAs I walked by the dockside one evening so fair To view the salt waters and take the salt air I heard an old fisherman singing a song Won't you take me away boys me time is not long
[Chorus] Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip mates And I'll see you some day in Fiddler's Green [Chorus]
Now Fiddler's Green is a place I hear tell Where the fishermen go if they don't go to hell Where skies are all clear and the dolphins do play And the cold coast of Greenland is far, far away
Where the skies are all clear and there's never a gale And the fish jump on board with a swish of their tails Where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do And the skipper's below making tea for the crew.
When you get back on dock and the journey's through There's pubs and there's clubs and there's lassies there too Where the girls are all pretty and the beer it is free And there's bottles of rum growing from every tree
Now, I don't want a harp nor a halo, not me Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea I'll play me old squeeze-box as we sail along With the wind in the rigging to sing me a song
