lyrics

Behind the Kerry Mountains
In a bay down by the shore
Lies the lovely town of Dingle
Where the albatrosses soar
When you see it in the morning
All the sailors sober up
They treat their ships like lovers
And then go back to the pub

On every street and corner
You can hear the fiddlers play
At night they play for Guinness
Run a hardware shop by day
And right across the main road
In a dark and crowded bar
Meabh sings and plays accordion
And Matt slams his guitar

Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
There’s no place that I’d rather be
Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
You’ve been so good to me

And when you take a boat trip
To the islands far away
You get to meet the dolphin
That lives in Dingle Bay
The colourful bright houses
On the street down by the port
Their water tastes like whiskey
And their ice cream tastes like salt

Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
There’s no place that I’d rather be
Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
You’ve been so good to me

And when my days are over
And all my songs are sung
I want to stay forever
Underneath the Irish sun
Please scatter my ashes
At the lighthouse by the sea
‘Cause Dingle Town so lovely
Is where I want to be

Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
There’s no place that I’d rather be
Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
You’ve been so good to me

Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
There’s no place that I’d rather be
Oh Dingle, lovely Dingle Town
You’ve been so good to me
