I'm proud to call you mine
Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
No matter who I love and who at home or over sea
My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
Dublin men and women are the salt of all the earth
Fiercely true and loyal to the town that gave them birth
A Dublin man spends all his life making friends
With black porter each evening at eight
When they sound his death smell his last order listed well
By Saint James his pearly gate
Oh, Dublin you're my city
I'm proud to call you mine
Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
No matter who I love and who at home or over sea
My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
Dublin is to Dubliners a dear old dirty town
It's getting dearer every year and hard to earn a pound
And as for the Liffey that dashed through the city
It's thicker than creakle or chalk
It will soon be so grim that instead of a swim
They'll be holding the Liffey walk
Dogs and drugs and muggings are the order of the day
The headlines yell we've gone to hell
It's time crime didn't pay
The gangs and the police meet nightly on Folice
They're bleeding their way through the news
It's become quite a scene then you show on our screen
Will be Sean McDarmitt Street blues
Oh, Dublin you're my city
I'm proud to call you mine
Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
No matter who I love and who at home or over sea
My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
Even though we've troubles we can always find a smile
A 'Dub' will wear a certain air I think you call it style
Those Guinness Street faces from the Phoenix park races
Cheer up the great streets with their joy
The most landmarks are gone, the rich pageant lives on
And Molly Malone still survives
Oh, Dublin you're my city
I'm proud to call you mine
Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
No matter who I love and who at home or over sea
My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
Oh, Dublin you're my city
I'm proud to call you mine
Divided by the Liffey's greasy slime
No matter who I love and who at home or over sea
My heart prefers those Dubliners like me
