See the broad majestic Shannon
the rising of the moon so bright
all the past years full of troubles
Rake's at the gates of hell tonight
feel the roving heartbeat if you
feel the rambling blood within
until the wild cats of Kilkenny
want to meet with you again
Life and death are close frinds as you know
may the angels be watching over you
The bells of hell go ting-a-ling-a-ling
for you but not for me.
Oh death, where is thy sting-a-ling-a-ling
Or grave thy victory?
Finnegan has found a smart way
playing pool in Miami Beach
a foreigner in Florida
knows how to win without a breach
feel the roving heartbeat if you
feel the rambling blood within
until the wild cats of Kilkenny
want to meet with you again
Life and death are close frinds as you know
may the angels be watching over you
