Lyrics

Oh, the little boats are gone
From the breast of An Liffey
The ferrymen are stranded on the quay
Sure the Dublin docks are dying
And the way of life is gone
And Molly, 'twas a part of you and me
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the worries from my brow
I'll love you well today
I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever loved me, Molly, love me now
'Twas the only job I knew
'Twas hard but never lonely
The Liffey Ferry made a man of me
Now it's gone without a whisper
I've forgotten even now
And it's over, Molly, over, can't you see
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the worries from my brow
I'll love you well today
I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever loved me, Molly, love me now
And now I'll tend the yard
I spend my days a-talking
I hear them whisper, "Charlie's on the dole"
But Molly, we're still living
And darling, we're still young
And the river never roamed me heart nor soul
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the worries from my brow
I'll love you well today
I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever loved me, Molly, love me now
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the worries from my brow
I'll love you well today
I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever loved me, Molly, love me now
If you ever loved me, Molly, love me now
