Oh I Wish I was a Blues Fan

performed by Mullanimal

To the tune of "I wish I was a Punk Rocker"

Listen: http://www.upthedeise.org/upthedeise.com/waterford-mp3s/i-wish-i-was-a-blues-fan.mp3

Oh I wish i was a blues fan with me hands up in the air
From 67 to 69 we were winning everywhere
I was born to late
To a club that dosent care
Oh i wish i was a blues fan with the cup up in the air

Back then we had a real good team
And 20.000 fans who screemed
When Alfie and Jimmy were supream
oh those were the days
but now its all gone kinda shyte
with no fans nor a cup in sight
whatever happened to the club
that were once dynamite

Oh I wish i was a blues fan with me hands up in the air
from 67 and 69 we were winning everywhere
I was born to late
To a club that dosent care
Oh i wish i was a blues fan with the cup up in the air

The Secret Ball

performed by Leonard Kilcohen

To the tune of Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen

Listen: http://www.upthedeise.org/upthedeise.com/waterford-mp3s/hallelujah-deise.mp3

Now I've heard there was a secret ball,
That Flynner played, and it pleased us all,
But you don't really care for hurlin', do you?
It goes like this
Feet shoulder width,
He takes his grip,
and bends and lifts,
then strikes the ball and the crowd goes Up The Deise

Up The Deise
Up The Deise
Up The Deise
Up The Deise

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
To see McCarthy on the roof
Of a bus coming across the bridge now don't you!
They lifted Liam
up in the air,
We all screamed out
without a care,
Those words that mean so much Up The Deise

Up The Deise
Up The Deise
Up The Deise
Up The Deise

Living in Port Lairge

performed by Paddy Brown

(to the tune of "Living in America" by James Brown)

listen here: living-in-port-lairge.mp3 (3MB approx)

Super drives - along the coast - gorgeous beaches everywhere -
On the county mountain road
just slide behind the wheel.
How does it feel when there's no destination that's too far

And somewhere on the way
you might find out who you are.

Living in PortLairge - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in PortLairge - hand in hand - across the Deise.
Living in PortLairge - got to have a celebration - rock my soul!

Some craic - Pigs Back - Kilmeaden railroad track.
All-night radio keep on runnin' through your rock'n' roll soul.
All-night diners keep you awake
On a black puddin and a blaa roll.
you might have to walk a fine line
you might take a hard line

But everybody's workin' overtime.

Living in PortLairge - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in PortLairge - hand in hand - across the Deise.
Living in PortLairge - got to have a celebration - rock my soul!

I live in PortLairge - I live in PortLairge - wait a minute -
you may not be lookin' for the promised land

But you might find it anyway.
Under one of those old familiar names like;
Dunmore East - Dunmore East
Waterford City - Waterford City

Tramore Beach - Tramore Beach
Portlaw Town - Portlaw Town

Dungarvan - Dungarvan
Lismore Town - Lismore Town

Ardmore - Ardmore
Clashmore and Tallow

Living in Port Lairge - hit me - Port Lairge - Port Lairge.
I live in Port Lairge - staying alive - we'll make the prime.
I live in Port Lairge - hey
I know what it means.

Living in Port Lairge - hit me - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in Port Lairge - so nice - would you better stop?
Living in Port Lairge - I feel good!

Sittin' by the Clock on the Quay (pronounced Kay)

performed by Mullanimal

to the tune of "sittin' at the dock of the bay"

Listen to Sittin' by de Clock on de Kay here

Sittin' here readin the Sun,
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come,
Watching the tall ships roll in,
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin' wine

I left my home on Browne's Road,
Heading for the clock tower boy
'Cause I've got no-wan to work for,
And I'm looking for somewan to annoy!

So I'm just gonna sit by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Ooo, I'm sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin' wine

Look like things are gonna change,
Everywan in the Deise wants the same,
We can do what ten other counties can do,
So I guess we'll just have to reign, yes

Sittin' here resting my arse,
Thinkin that road to Kilkenny's a farse,
It's two thousand metres to home,
So I think I'll call me ma' on the phone,

Now, I'm just gonna sit by the clock on the kay
Watching some ride stroll away
Oooo-wee, sittin' by the clock on the kay
Drinkin wine

Tirconnell Avenue

Sung by Eddie Grantstown

A tribute to the daily march our very own WIT students partake in from hillview through Tirconnell Avenue on their way to WIT to the tune of Eddy Grant's Electric Avenue...

Listen: http://www.upthedeise.org/upthedeise.com/waterford-mp3s/tirconnell-avenue.mp3

Up in Hillview there was silence
And a long long walk to be done
No place to hang out our washing
So now I got some ire on me bum, oh no

CHORUS:
We gonna walk down through Tirconnell Avenue
and then we'll all get ire...
Oh gonna walk down through Tirconnell Avenue
me bum is on fire

studyin' hard like a soldier
can't afford wan thing only beer
Deep in my heart I'm a gowler
But now my friends all think I'm queer, oh no

CHORUS

Who is to blame in de country
For de ire I got on me bum
Covered all talced up and creamy,
I think I got some shyte on me thumb, oh no

Do Bhios-sa Lá I bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Ó do bhíos-sa lá 'bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann (There was wine and punch on the table)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí lán an tí de mhnáibh ann (There was a house with loads of women)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus mise ag ól a sláinte (And I was drinking to their health)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

Agus d'éalaigh bean ón ráth liom (I eloped with a girl from rathcormack)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus triúr ó Thiobraid Árann (And three from Tipperary)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní raibh a muintir sásta (Their folks weren't happy)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní rabhadar ná leathshásta (They weren't even half happy)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

Ó raghad don Charraig amárach (I will go to Carrick tomorrow)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus tabharfad cailín breá dom (And a girl will be with me)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Raghamid tríd an mBearnán (And through the gap we'll travel)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
d'Cuir fios ar shagart láithreach (Get a priest quick)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

Ó do bhíos-sa lá 'bPort Láirge (One fine day in Waterford)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann (There was wine and punch on the table)
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

You’re just too good to be true,

And when we’re drunk in the bars,
We'll just thank God that you’re ours,
Your just too good to be true,
Can’t take the ball off of you...

Pardon the way that we stare,
There's no wan else to compare,
The sight of you at your peak,
Makes all the udders look weak,
But when you feel like a king,
We're gonna join in and sing,
You're just too good to be true
Can't take de ball off of you...
