Lyrics:
Dun Laoghaire you are the place for me The town where I live, you've been so good to me Grew up there, grew up without a care Us working class we used to thrive there Vera's downtown selling fish they make a tasty dish Fish dripwater on the cobblestones a tasty treat for thirsty gulls. The schools there teach the children how to care ABC's sums and glossaries In secondary school, learn how to act the fool But discipline proves to be a useful thing Lessons there are learned for life forget about your struggles and strife Learn to hold your head up high passing all your troubles by. Kicking ball down against St. Joeys wall Last man back that's when we had the craic You'd score a goal or hit your friend in the hole But it's all good young free and full of soul Friends for life in Sallynoggin at times with them my heart was throbbin' Oh yes they were the days, my Sallynoggin childhood days. Down the pier with my fishing gear Talking to people from far and near When the fish are in to miss the fishing it's a sin Forget your job go down to where the pretty girls jog. Hooks and crooks and every sort down for a bit of sport Basking in the glazing sun the junkies are all having fun. As a fishing town you've grown down and down The rich people they've all come to town Apartment blocks they replace my old shops And the rats sleep down in the empty baths Dun Laoghaire you're a changing town there's construction all around But this place remains so dear to me, my good old fashioned Dun Laoghaire.
