Lyrics:
a righteous man
Kilkenny, Kilkenny, Kilkenny, Kilkenny
Early one morning the news arrived
His brother shot dead by the Handsome Five
He kissed his wife,
Gringos gordos salen del Kilkenny
Gringos gordos salen del Kilkenny
Gringos gordos salen del Kilkenny
Gringos gordos salen del Kilkenny
en
a storm
Hey ho, whataya know, when you're outta good whiskey, you're out on the road
Way to kilkenny where liquor is plenty and people are friendly
One evening fair as the sun was shining
To Kilkenny I did ride
I did meet with Captain Brady
A tall commander by his side
Then you are welcome,
to the USA
REPEAT DOs
Liam Moore he comes from Kilken-ny
He's a singer and a painter, but not much behind the wheel
Drove my pick-up truck in Iowa into
burnt all the toast
Made our way up to Crescent to find us a drink
Some Guinness, Kilkenny's and more
We leave in a hurry, things start to get blurry
The first of me downfall I
Walked out the door
At night, oh now and to Carrick-on-Suir
Goin' into Kilkenny, was late in the night
As I went through
As I roved over the Kilkenny mountains
I met the Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then produced my
the price to sate your desire
There's always someone here with a welcome
Murphy's, Kilkenny or a fancy cocktail
A touch of jazz, soul of Jim spinning a tale
of the ladder's bottom rung
From the bustling bazaars of Istanbul
To the curios of Kilkenny
The folk you learn to trust the most
Are the folk with hardly any
to the salty sea.
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink,
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more now
and I cannot swim over
And neither have I the wings to fly
I wish I had a handsome boatman
To ferry me over, my love and I
Now in Kilkenny it is
in Cork or in Killarney
Together we'd go roamin'o'er the mountains of Kilkenny
And I swear he'd treat me fairer than me darlin' sportin' Jenny
to the salty sea.
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink,
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more now
I can remember when you left Kilkenny
And you told me, "I'll return next year"
I never meant to hold you to your promise
And the years went by
and I cannot swim over
And neither have I the wings to fly
I wish I had a handsome boatman
To ferry me over, my love and I
Now in Kilkenny it is
to the salty sea.
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink,
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more now
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink,
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink.
wide, and I can't swim over
Neither have I wings to fly
If I could find me a handsome boatsman
To ferry me over to my love and die
Now in Kilkenny
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink
With gold and silver I would support her
But I'll sing no more now till I get
the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
Nor have I wings so I could fly
I wish I could meet a handsome boatman
To carry me over my love and I
In kilkenny it
station in Cork or in Killarney
And if they come and join us, we'll go roving in Kilkenny
And I guess they'll treat me better than my darling, sportin'
or in Killarney
And if he'd come and join me, we'd go roving in Kilkenny
I swear he'd treat me fairer than my darling sporting Jenny
Musha ring dumma do
kilkenny
Ayo i piss atomic bombs, i slay many
I kill a slut if there's any, i'm zany
Eat more gritty beats than mani
If 30's the new 20, i guess i'm lucky
